Donate your leftover currency to the Tibetan Education and Relief Association

The Tibetan Education & Relief Association including Himalayan Communities – or ‘T.E.R.A.’ – was founded in 1986, and since then has been creating better lives for the very poorest people of impoverished multi-ethnic communities in India, Nepal & Tibet.

Throughout its history, T.E.R.A. has helped to support these people with what the western world would consider as ‘basic needs’ – education, health and welfare. We have direct personal connections with our representatives on the ground in Nepal and India, who we trust as they have integrity in finding those in genuine need. The dedication and commitment of our small international team means that our help has reached 1000s of people by transforming your donations into vital aid. Emergency food parcels for Covid-19 relief in Nepal and India; education sponsorship for children in Nepal, Tibet and India; outside toilets for a rural community in India; winter uniforms for Nepalese schoolchildren; food relief in Nepal for families struggling with the cost-of-living crisis – these, and many more essentials that they would otherwise struggle to find, or simply not have at all.

The pictures below are images from recent sponsorship: cost of living crisis food relief for 50 families in Kathmandu, and medical equipment donated to the Khokana Leprosy Centre (also in Nepal).
