To
keep abreast of all the initiatives of our Association, please
register in our mailing list.
Sponsoring is a very important kind
of aid to its recipients, and it is very easy to implement for those
willing to offer their co-operation. The requested yearly contribution
amounts to € 196,00 + €. 18,50 (Registration fee
to our Association).
We will put you personally in touch with the sponsored person and
his/her family, and you will have the opportunity to write to him/her
(in English) explaining that you intend to help him/her. Please remember
that quite often the addressees can't read English; consequently,
they need to have their sponsors' letters translated, and the contents
isn't always conveyed properly. Times can become very long, and misunderstandings
may sometimes arise from improper translations, also due to cultural
and lifestyle differences. Indeed, what is obvious to us may be hard
to understand to a Tibetan; the reverse may be true as well. One should
not forget that many of these people have no idea whatsoever about
how life unfolds outside their camps, and even less so about the way
we live.
We ask for a three-year minimum commitment. This is rather a moral
than a legal duty, and in case of need sponsors can hold up their
sponsorships at any time, provided they timely notify the Association;
As soon as our Association receives the sponsor's registration
fee and the sum of €. 214,50, the sponsor will receive a card with
the picture, the name and the address of the person selected for him/her.
At this point the sponsor may start writing to the sponsored person. Quite
often a deep personal bond develops; over the years, many members of our
Association have travelled to India to meet "their" children,
thereby creating real bonds of affection and friendship which extend well
beyond the simple economic support.
We believe it is important to support this People, the victim of a physical
and cultural genocide, whose culture, going back thousands of years, is
at risk of vanishing forever. We therefore thank you wholeheartedly for
your contribution, and we are sure it will mark the beginning of a beautiful
experience.
Congratulations!
