Local Tibet Travel Agency Two Social Projects

Over the years, Tibet has become a dream travel destination for many Travelers. We want to thank all the Travelers for choosing us.

One of the main goals of Tibet Travelers is to show gratitude to the locals by donating a part of their tour profits. One of their projects involved purchasing warm jackets for 319 students and five cooks at a primary school located at a high altitude in Pasum village, at 4,300 meters, near the Mount Everest base camp. The success of the project can be attributed to the generosity of the Travelers in selecting Tibet Travelers.

Local Tibet Travel Agency Two Social Projects

1. First Tibet Travel Social Project

Our Social Responsibility Project in Tibet focused on helping local Tibetan students in Pasum village, the hometown of Tibet Travelers Manager Tenzin Dhondup.

2. Mount Everest Base Camp Pasum Town.

I started the journey from Lhasa to Shigatse with my sister on the evening of April 8th. The next day, we traveled to Pasum village. The Journey from Lhasa to Pasum village is approximately 600 km, taking around 12 hours to complete by road.

My mother and my brother's family are staying at Pasum village.  On April 10th, my brother took me to the Pasum Primary School to meet the school Principal. The central education office transferred him to Pasum to improve the education in the village of Pasum. When students are given a gift, they must bring the plastics and waste back to school, so he seemed a very well-educated and determined school principal.

3. Jackets for 300 students at 4300 M.

The students are very well taken care of by the central staff. The clothes and food are all excellent. When I saw the faces of the students and the pure, innocent, and clean nature of the children, it made my day to know that we, together with the Traveler's help, had done something significant.

4. We extend gratitude to valued travelers.

We couldn't have made this project a reality without our wonderful travelers, who chose to embark on this journey with us. Our hearts are filled with gratitude as we extend our warmest thanks to each of you for choosing Tibet Travelers as your travel companion. Each year, Tibet Travelers plans to allocate a portion of its tour earnings towards supporting the local community.

5. Second Tibet Tour Social Project

In 2020, the Tibet Travelers company donated 180 wisdom books to 180 nuns at Tidrum Nunnery. The book's name is "Bodhisattva Way," a text by the great Shantideva from Nalanda University in the eighth century. Shantideva is one of the most renowned and esteemed figures in the history of Mahayana Buddhism.

This book delves deeply into the topic of arising Bodhichitta, which is the natural desire to achieve enlightenment driven by a deep compassion for all living beings. The Tidrum nunnery is approximately 140 km from Lhasa, and it takes 3-4 hours to get there by car. Tidrum is a unique location due to its proximity to the best hot springs near Lhasa. Additionally, there is a cave where the great master Maha Guru Rinpoche meditated in the 8th century.
