This is our first Non-Profit of the Month. Click through to read all about it!

At Blue Lotus Chai, we are really appreciative of all the ways people choose to serve our world through their many non-profits.

Monthly — beginning in June 2018 — we will honor one of our BLC family members by having them choose our “Non-Profit Of The Month”. This non-profit will be spotlighted via our social media channels & will receive an in-kind & cash donation.

We’ll be sharing our first honoree this week…
Stay tuned! #BLCNonProfits @BlueLotusChai
