Karuna-Shechen isproud to participate in #GivingTuesday! This global day of giving invites individuals to celebrate the holiday season by giving back and creating change in communities across the globe.
Our founder Matthieu Ricard shares a special Giving Tuesday message:
Matthieu Ricard explains how together we can save lives and increase well-being for under-served people in the Himalayas:
Thank you for joining us on #GivingTuesday to help save lives and improve the well-being of those in need in the Himalayas!
A very generous supporter offered to match up to 50,000 dollars of contributions for our GivingTuesday campaign. Every donation was automatically doubled!
Every year, together we help more than 250,000 people in need in India, Nepal, and Tibet. Your donations make this and more possible:
Your support on #GivingTuesday and every day allows us to continue fulfilling our mission and create a joyful way for you to show your compassion in action!
We continue to accept donations to create a better life for the 250,000 people we support each year in remote and under-served areas of the Himalayas.
Thank you 🙏
