Dear Friends,
We are thrilled to announce that together we have met the challenge to raise $250,000 for our matching grant campaign, The Tibet House Pandemic-Survival Matching Grant Challenge, started auspiciously on July 6th, H.H. the Dalai Lama’s 85th birthday. Thank you!
What an incredible show of support in this time of deep uncertainty when we all are facing tremendous challenges on so many levels. We are so very humbled, uplifted, encouraged by, and grateful for your generosity. Regardless of the size of your gift, every penny has helped us survive this catastrophic pandemic with our facilities mostly shuttered and our staff mostly furloughed. We are cautiously optimistic that we can begin to slowly and gradually open up parts of the organization and our facilities in the coming months, conditions permitting.
