Rumtek, Sikkim
Support KCD Nunnery
Every donation makes a meaningful difference in the lives of our female dharma practitioners.
The nuns are extremely grateful for your support to complete the gompa restoration project and the new accommodation block, to refurbish the oldest buildings, and to cover the rising costs of daily operational expenses (including teaching and cooking staff salaries, fuel, electricity, clean and healthy food, water, clothing, school books, medicine and healthcare). You might also consider sponsorship for senior nuns to travel for higher training or to assist in the costs associated with the annual Monlam pilgrimage to Bodhgaya.
​
Online & Bank Donations
Supporters can donate via the following organisations to contribute to existing fundraising efforts. All funds donated to these organisations go to the nuns in full (no overheads or processing fees are taken). Both organisations regularly visit the nuns to maintain a strong friendship and to see the progress their funds support.
