In
honor of the U.S. holiday of Mother's Day, May 8, 2016, we are kicking
off a new fundraising campaign through Global Giving to support our
clinic in Tibet. In 2014 we raised $27,165 and in 2015 another $5,025
for our Safe Childbirth in Tibet project through Global Giving. Our
success was due to the exceptional generosity of friends of the Amitabha
Foundation, and their friends reached through Facebook, Twitter and
other online social media.
Our goal this year is to raise $30,000,
enough to pay health workers' salaries for 1 year, provide training and
supplies to reduce infant mortality and purchase a new ambulance
for the Rima Village Clinic in Ayang Rinpoche's birthplace area in
Eastern Tibet. Read more about our Global Giving project here, or make a donation now. You can pay online or by check.
Even if you have very limited financial resources, you can help us raise money for this important cause by creating your own personalized fundraising page for
this project. You could set one up to commemorate Mother's Day or
Father's Day, your birthday, your wedding, the marathon you're about to
run, your new business venture, to remember a loved one, or for any
other reason you can think of!
Share our project on Twitter or Facebook, so we can reach others who will care about saving mothers' and infants' lives in this remote area on the Tibetan Plateau. Every
new person you connect with could make the difference in providing a
clean home birth with an educated birth attendant and access to
emergency care.
Thank you for caring!
