Tibetan Literacy Project 2025

"I am the first in my family to read and write. Someday, I hope to be a teacher so I can help others learn."

Most Tibetans stop school by age 13, with just an average of 7 years of education, even less for girls.

We believe every child deserves the chance to learn, grow, and lead.

Here's how we’re making that possible:

• We proudly support 24 Tibetan children — 13 girls and 11 boys — each with the potential to become a force for good in their villages and beyond.
• Through a community-led selection process, we identify bright, motivated students who would otherwise be denied access to education.
• We support them from primary school through college, focusing on schools where Tibetan identity, language, and culture are honoured and upheld.
• Our work continues after graduation, with job placement support, mentorship, and guidance for those starting their own businesses.
• Run entirely by volunteers, our project ensures 100% of donations go directly to the children’s education.

Each Child Receives Support in Four Categories

1. Tuition- Help us cover school fees, giving a Tibetan child the chance to thrive and build a brighter tomorrow.

2. Boarding - As the children's villages are hundreds of kilometers away, we provide safe, comfortable housing for them at school as well as a tutor to help ensure their success.

3. Meals - We provide three healthy & balanced meals per day to help keep the children's growing bodies and minds strong and focused on learning.

4. Transportation - Most remote villages in Tibet do not have schools. We help provide safe transportation for children coming from remote places, bringing them to school, and home to see their families over the holidays.
