Tibet Relief Fund has worked for over six decades alongside Tibetan communities to build sustainable futures through education, healthcare, community development and empowerment. Today, our work extends across India, Nepal and Tibet, partnering with grassroots organisations to support schools, medical centres, elderly care, youth development and cultural preservation — giving dignity, opportunity and hope where it is needed most.
Our Sponsorship Programme sits at the heart of this mission. What began in the 1960s supporting children who had fled with their families after 1959 now provides stability, education and care to children, elders, monks, nuns and university students across India and Nepal. These long-term connections between supporters in the UK and individuals in exile bring real lives within reach of a brighter future.
