Mission: Our mission is to provide basic care for ordained Tibetan Buddhist women, and educate them in traditional values and philosophy, as well as the essential skills and knowledge needed to function in the modern world. We are working to establish a role for ordained women as teachers and leaders comparable to that of monks. We work to: -Contribute to the preservation of Tibetan cultural and religious traditions. -Improve the health and living conditions of Tibetan nuns in exile. -Provide traditional as well as modern education for Tibetan women. -Provide highly educated female teachers to the Tibetan Buddhist community and the world at large. -Establish self-sufficient Buddhist nunneries. We facilitate income-generating projects for nuns and market what they hand make on our website and at events.
