Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition
The FPMT is an organization devoted to preserving and spreading Mahayana Buddhism worldwide by creating opportunities to listen, reflect, meditate, practice and actualize the unmistaken teachings of the Buddha and based on that experience spreading the Dharma to sentient beings. We provide integrated education through which people’s minds and hearts can be transformed into their highest potential for the benefit of others, inspired by an attitude of universal responsibility and service. We are committed to creating harmonious environments and helping all beings develop their full potential of infinite wisdom and compassion. Our organization is based on the Buddhist tradition of Lama Tsongkhapa of Tibet as taught to us by our founders Lama Thubten Yeshe and Lama Thubten Zopa Rinpoche.

Please Rejoice in a Year of Charitable Giving!
Approximately 700,000 meals were offered to the monks of Sera Je Monastery through the Sera Je Food Fund in 2016.
In 2016, FPMT Charitable Projects provided grants totaling US$3,512,326 toward various beneficial activities, including offering food to ordained Sangha and children; providing Buddhist philosophy scholarships; sponsoring beneficial pujas and practices; monthly offerings to the main teachers of the Lama Tsongkhapa tradition and sponsoring annual debates; offering grants to social services such as elder care homes, schools, hospitals, and monastic institutions; providing comprehensive Dharma programs; translating Dharma texts; sponsoring the creation of holy objects, such as statues, stupas, prayer wheels, and large thangkas; and saving animals from death and giving them Dharma imprints.
Elderly residents of a home in Dharamsala sponsored by the Social Services Fund
Of particular note in 2016 was the US$356,727 disbursed from the Social Services Fund. Supporting those in need—such as children, the elderly, the poor, and sick—is the main priority of this fund. Lama Zopa Rinpoche has also indicated that in addition to offering much needed material resources, we should also help by offering Dharma talks and when possible holy objects, which helps change karma for the better and bring real lasting benefit.
This 13-foot Guru Rinpoche statue had to be airlifted to Lawudo, Nepal, and was sponsored by the Holy Objects Fund in 2016.
Another area we are so happy to have supported in 2016 is the creation of holy objects. The Holy Objects Fund contributes to the construction of holy objects for world peace, which is a high priority among Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s Vast Visions for the FPMT organization. This year, US$879,972 was offered toward these projects, including the Maitreya Projects in Kushinagar and Bodhgaya; seven large prayer wheels, including five water-turned prayer wheels in Nepal, one in a Tibetan settlement in India, and one in New Zealand; thirteen Guru Rinpoche statues for Lawudo Retreat Center in Nepal; and seven statues that will be placed inside a larger statue in India.
We’d like to invite you to rejoice in all the grants that FPMT Charitable Projects was able to offer this year. You can read more about this in this year’s FPMT International Office annual review. Tremendous thanks for the kindness and generosity of many who give to the various funds and initiatives this past year, enabling our compassionate work to continue.
You can learn more about the FPMT Charitable Projects, follow news and updates, or make a donation of any amount to help this work continue.
