The Sangha Fund

Since the Communist invasion of Tibet in 1959 and the subsequent flight of hundreds of thousands of Tibetans to India and Nepal, the exile Tibetan community in India and Nepal has worked to rebuild and preserve their religious tradition under very adverse
conditions.

The life of Tibetan monks and nuns in India and Nepal consists of hard work, all day long, studying, practicing, and taking care of their monasteries for which they receive no pay.

One of the key things that these hardworking Tibetan monks and nuns need is adequate and healthy food, medical care, shelter and clothing. Often the monks and nuns live in cramped quarters, with inferior food, poor medical care, and clothing badly in need of repair or replacement. (See below for The Sangha Fund Brochure)

What You Can Do to Help

The Sangha Fund was started to help with the daily needs of monks and nuns in India and Nepal by Lama Migmar Tseten, the Buddhist Chaplain of Harvard University.
