2017-2018 Tibetan Student College Sponsorships
For the 2017-2018 School Year we sponsored three young Tibetan students to go to university. They were each starting their freshman year in a four year college program. Three American women stepped up to sponsors three Tibetan women – and we are so, so grateful to them. Tsering Tso – our Tibetan board director and the leader of the Amdo Eastern Tibet women’s pilgrimage tour through Kham Voyage, found these three promising young students and shared their stories with me (this was before the foundation was started) so that I could help find sponsors for them.
The three students for the 2017-2018 school year each came from the Amdo region, in eastern Tibet. Here they are:
