Karuna-Shechen, founded by Matthieu Ricard in 2000, provides health care, education, and social services for the under-served people of India, Nepal, and Tibet.
In India and Nepal, the health situation is becoming increasingly alarming. Karuna-Shechen has organized an emergency operation for the most destitute in facing the crisis. Help them, make a difference.
This International Women’s Day, empower women and girls to tap their potential and pursue healthier, happier, and more equal lives.
Help Karuan-Shechen improve well-being, raise awareness and reduce the impact of climate change. Together, lets build a greener world!
The Monk and the Philosopher was published a little over twenty years ago and provided the funding to start Karuna-Shechen! Matthieu Ricard shares the story.
