Story

Some of you may know that I visited the Tibetan Children's Village in McLeod Ganj near Dharamsala in December 2006. I had read and heard much about these children who have to leave their parents in Tibet in order to get a Tibetan education in India or Nepal. My visit to the children's village was a very deep experience for me. When I was there and played with the children, the documentaries I had seen and the books I had read suddenly became so real.

The children I encountered appeared to be very friendly, happy and open kids who seemed to have found a place where they are cared for and where they can live their culture. I was very impressed by the job the maintainers of this children's village are doing and I have wanted to support them ever since.

I have set up a this donation account where you can easily give a donation which goes directly to the Tibetan children village in Dharamsala.

Donating through the following site is simple, fast and totally secure. The SOS Children's Villages will directly receive your money, and if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Please donate something, no matter how small, it will make a difference to the children of a peaceful people who want to gain back the liberty of Tibet!

Thank you for helping to make a change to these children's future!

Im Dezember 2006 habe ich das tibetische Kinderdorf in McLeod Ganj bei Dharamsala besucht. Ich hatte einiges über die Waisenkinder Tibets gelesen und gehört, welche ihre Eltern in Tibet zurücklassen um eine tibetische Bildung in Indien und Nepal zu erhalten. Der Besuch des Kinderdorfs war ein sehr einschneidendes Erlebnis für mich. Plötzlich hatte ich diese Kinder aus den Reportagen und Büchern ganz real vor mir.

Ich traf auf freundliche, glückliche und offene Kinder, die einen Platz gefunden haben, wo man für sie sorgt und wo sie ihre Kultur ausleben dürfen. Mich hat die Arbeit der Erhalterinnen dieses Kinderdorfs sehr stark beeindruckt und ich wollte seither etwas machen um sie zu unterstützen.

Ich habe hier eine Bankverbindung initiiert, wo Sie eine Spende direkt an das tibetische Kinderdorf in Dharamsala geben können.

Die folgende Seite ist ein einfacher, schneller und sicherer Weg Ihre Spende direkt an das SOS Kinderdorf weiterzuleiten.

Bitte Spenden Sie etwas, egal wie klein der Beitrag, Sie helfen damit den Kindern eines friedlichen Volks, welches nach einem freien Tibet strebt!

Danke, dass Sie mir dabei helfen etwas für die Zukunft dieser Kinder zu tun!
