We hope you had a relaxing break during the Christmas season and are ready to make new, exciting memories for 2023. Our girls at the Bodong Lumla Home for Girls celebrated Christmas with a special dinner that they prepared and shared together. They also made special Christmas cards for their sponsors which we sent via personal email. 

Lumla residents are now getting ready to celebrate Losar, an important festival for them that heralds the Tibetan New Year. This will take place 21 February 2023.

New School Year!

After two years of COVID uncertainty, school rosters are back to normal and the annual school exams were able to take place on schedule. Nine of our girls are now in high school. The younger ones are still in primary school and are following in the footsteps of their ‘big sisters’.

It’s been a while since our last update but we are happy to inform you that your sponsored child is thriving at the Lumla Bodong Nunnery.

Our family has grown!

What can we say about 2020? The first word that comes to mind is ‘gratitude’.
