The compassionate activity of our worldwide mandala is accomplished through a number of FPMT Charitable Projects and funds which seek to preserve the Dharma, support study and practice, benefit beings in need, and create the causes for peace.
Please consider offering support to one or more of our projects and funds below. Thank you!
The Supporting Ordained Sangha Fund provides support to ordained Sangha (monks and nuns) as well as monasteries and nunneries. Funds are used to provide support for food, accommodation, education, health care, retreat needs for Sangha, and the Lama Tsongkhapa Teachers Fund.
The Social Services Fund benefits others through grants offered mainly in India, Nepal, Tibet and Mongolia. Funds are offered for schools, hospices, health clinics, soup kitchens, elderly homes, orphanages, the Animal Liberation Fund, protecting the environment, and much more.
The Holy Objects Fund contributes to the creation of holy objects for world peace. The fund offers grants to contribute to the building of holy objects such as stupas, statues, prayer wheels, and large thangkas.
The Practice and Retreat Fund provides grants and sponsorships for students engaged in retreats such as 108 nyung nä retreats, 100 million mani retreats, recitations of sutras and long term retreat. Grants are also given to develop retreat centers and for writing the Prajnaparamita Sutra in pure gold.
The Puja Fund sponsors pujas specifically chosen by Lama Zopa Rinpoche and performed by up to 15,650 Sangha. Additionally, monthly offerings of gold, saffron, brocade and umbrellas are made to stupas and statues in India, Nepal and Tibet.
Your donations will be used to support the work of FPMT International Office and also provides for urgent needs in ongoing commitments and grants from FPMT charitable projects, as well as new projects and unanticipated needs not provided for elsewhere.
