A 100 Nu (Bhutanese Ngultrum) initiative was started in 2016 to support the Choedaypung monastery in Bumthang, Bhutan. This is an equivalent of about 1 Euro which some Bhutanese people donate monthly to contribute to the monks’ welfare: their clothing, bedding, stationeries, and food. Supporters can pay this or higher amount monthly, quarterly, every six months or annually.
You can also help in providing food, accommodation and education to young monks who found shelter in the Choedaypung monastery run by Kyabje Tang Rinpoche. These children come from orphanages or poor families and became part of the monastic community. You can become a patron of a particular monk in this programme by sending regular donations of 40 Euro per month. This money will be spent on the needs of young monks. You can also declare any other amount according to your capability. Smaller donations coming from many people can support one monk as well and single donations are very appreciated too – they can be done to support a particular monk or generally all monks.
The monks will know about their patrons and will dedicate them the merits from the practice. In this way, a special bond is established between monks and their supporters. Kyabje Tang Rinpoche will also regularly perform special rituals and prayers for the good fortune of generous members of this support programme.
