On behalf of all us at Gaden Shartse Cultural Foundation, I would like to extend our deep appreciation for all your support and kindness. Your generosity has helped us to our part in helping to maintain and preserve the Tibetan culture.  Many of our supporters have asked if there are any specific needs that we have and it was suggested that we provide a “wish list” so that they can help support our mission. It is in that spirit that we are posting this wish list.  If you are interested and able to help us with our needs, it is greatly appreciated. However, always make sure not to extend yourself and make sure any contributions fit into your budget. To make a contribution you can write a check or donate online with a credit card.

If donating by check please mail it to the following address and indicate the purpose. Checks are made out to:

Gaden Shartse Cultural Foundation

3500 E. 4th Street

Long Beach, CA 90814

If you would like to donate online, please go to our donation page and then on the donation button labeled “Gaden Shartse Cultural Foundation.”  Under special instructions, please indicate the purpose of your donation. Here is a link to the Donation Page.

Current Needs

1. Desktop computer – we currently have need for a new computer. This will be used for all of our adminstrative functions. Currently John (Chophel) has been using his laptop.  We can purchase a good quality, new desktop package from Bestbuy for $600.00 (taxes included).  If you can help make a donation toward this cause, even a small one, that would be very helpful. As of April 12th at 8am Pacific Time, we have received $200.00 in donations for this.

Thank you so much for all you kindness.
