Tibet Relief Fund helps Tibetans to build a brighter future through better education, healthcare and community development. We also run a thriving sponsorship programme for children, elderly Tibetans, monks and nuns.

Story

<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><em>&ldquo;Tibet Relief Fund was set up to respond to the needs of Tibetan refugees, following the Chinese invasion of Tibet in 1950. Today, they provide vital support to Tibetans in exile and inside Tibet, including emergency aid to newly-arrived refugees and education, healthcare and income-generating projects for the long-term. Tibet Relief Fund also runs a sponsorship programme to support children, university students, elderly people, monks and nuns. &nbsp;Please visit their website for more information: <a href="http://www.tibetrelieffund.co.uk/"><span style="color: #0068cf;">www.tibetrelieffund.co.uk</span></a>, call 020 7272 1414 or email <a href="mailto:trf@tibetrelieffund.co.uk"><span style="color: #0068cf;">trf@tibetrelieffund.co.uk</span></a>. &nbsp;&nbsp;</em></p> <p class="ecxMsoNormal"><em>&nbsp;</em></p> <p class="ecxMsoNormal"><em>I&rsquo;ll be running in order to raise vitally needed funding for healthcare, education, self-sustainability and development projects for Tibetans in India, Nepal and Tibet.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you would like to sponsor me, please give what you can; just &pound;5 could supply food, accommodation, clothing and medical care for an elderly Tibetan in need in Nepal for two whole weeks. &nbsp;Thank you.&rdquo;</em></p>
