2. Lecture in your Expertise
Bhutan being a developing country is always in need of education in every aspect. If you are an expert in a specific subject, we will be delighted to arrange a lecture and a question and answer session for an audience, be it a school, community, diplomats, or young entrepreneurs. Sharing knowledge is one of the most fundamental acts of friendship and it is a way you can give without loosing.
3. Donation to a Monastery/School
Underprivileged families in Bhutan who cannot afford to raise a child often enroll them in the monastic body at a very young age. The monastic body provides for these young boys and girls the basic necessity such as food, shelter, and at most, two sets of clothes. Similarly, there are some schools in remote parts of Bhutan who also require support with basic school utilities, books, and equipment’s. Once in a while local communities pool in and donate jackets, socks, hats, and stationeries to help make life a little better for these monks, nuns, and children in school. Monetary donation is not encouraged. Rather, bringing something special from your home to donate or purchasing it locally and donating is encouraged.
4. Child Sponsorship
Our program to sponsor a Bhutanese child enables you to support an underprivileged child by giving them the opportunity to grow up healthy and
educated, forever changing their life and future. We carry out this program through Save the Children, Bhutan and Ministry of Education together. While you’re in Bhutan, you can personally visit the organization & work with them to sponsor a child.
