The Mayul School (also called the Hungkar Dorje Multi-Disciplinary Technical School) is a new vocational school for Tibetans in Gande County, Golog Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, China, one of the poorest regions of one of China's least developed provinces. Building of the school began in April 2008 and it is nearly complete. The facilities, which include dorms, a cafeteria, classrooms, library, and an administration building, will eventually serve 600 students. Read more ...

Working amongst the group of “first responders” after the tragic Juekundo (Yushu) earthquake, the Qinghai Geysar foundation in Golog, in conjunction with Lodro Nyima Rinpoche, the abbot of Trangu Monastery oversaw the delivery of enormous amounts of relief supplies delivered by truck to Trangu Monastery and surrounding villages in early May.

Thirty monks brought ten truckloads of food, fuel, blankets and tents all the way from Golog, and handed out an additional million RMB to desperate villagers. Continuing deliveries of tsampa flour, butter and other essential supplies are in process as well. Nearly ten thousand people have received direct assistance in this way.



In a firsthand account, Hungkar Rinpoche stated “We gave food directly to people starting with the poorest and those whose homes were completely destroyed. Going to two outlying areas, we gave aid to 500 families with 3000 people fed in the first village. This area was neglected so we brought in 2 trucks of supplies. In the second village we helped an additional 1500 people. This village had 50 dead. Both villages were completely destroyed. People were hungry, thirsty and fainting. We supplied 5 very large tents and set up a kitchen with a stove. Later we gave everything we brought in away. We came away with empty hands”.

The Blue Valley Foundation has helped in this fundraising effort but your donations are urgently needed so that we can continue supporting work on the ground in Yushu. Please help us by donating to our Earthquake Relief Fund. 100% of all donations go directly to those most in need.
