Sewa Houston team organized a 5K Walk/Run on August 8 at Arbor Park in Fulshear, in partnership with HSS, Heartfulness, and the City of Fulshear.
The morning began with warm-up exercises and Surya Namaskara, followed by inspiring words from our partner organizations about their community initiatives and service efforts.
Then, nearly 100 enthusiastic participants hit the trail for the 5K! Everyone enjoyed the beautiful Cross Creek Ranch trail, with kids excited to receive their finisher medals.🏅
The summer heat made the run challenging, but the water, fruits, and cereal bars provided by our partner organizations were a welcome boost for participants. After the run, several participants also joined the Heartfulness meditation session, adding a wonderful dimension of mindfulness and wellness to the morning.
More than just a run, it was a wonderful community-bonding event promoting an active, healthy, and balanced lifestyle - and the positive feedback from participants made it even more rewarding.
A big thank you to HSS, Heartfulness, and the City of Fulshear* for their partnership and support, and to everyone who participated and made the event a memorable one! �

On August 1st, 50 Sewa Houston volunteers had the privilege of serving at Kids' Meals, a remarkable Houston nonprofit dedicated to ending childhood hunger.
Founded in 2006, Kids' Meals delivers free healthy meals directly to the doorsteps of preschool-aged children living in food-insecure households. Over the past 20 years, the organization has served more than 20 million meals. Today, it prepares and delivers over 13,000 meals every day across 56 Houston-area ZIP codes. Families enroll through the Kids' Meals app, after which meals are prepared, packed, and delivered by dedicated drivers to underserved neighborhoods and apartment communities.
Our volunteers enthusiastically participated in multiple activities, including sorting food items, preparing peanut butter sandwiches and cheese burritos, and assembling snack packs.
Together, the Sewa team accomplished:
🥪 2,350 sandwiches and cheese burritos, enough to serve children across * 7 ZIP codes*
🍎 800 snack packs, supporting families in 5 ZIP codes
Beyond the numbers, it was a deeply meaningful and humbling experience. Our volunteers witnessed firsthand the scale of childhood hunger in our own community and were inspired by the efficient, compassionate service model of Kids' Meals.
