We are currently sponsoring the up bringing of four siblings who were all born blind. They are members of a Muslim family of five children from the remote village of Igoo, whose village leader contacted the Lama Chogyal about their troubles. The three daughters now attend a school for the blind in Delhi, while the son has remained in Ladakh, with help to cope with his disability. This is only possible through the donations from Singaporean groups and two ladies from the Muslim Women Alliance.
Four wheelchairs and other handicap aids have been donated at the Dalai Lama's request to children at the Tibetan Exiles' Handicap Centre in Deharadun.
The Ladakh Heart Foundation has also helped co-ordinate donations from Singaporean groups to nine nunneries and a school in Ladakh, and to four patients with suspected chronic mountain sickness, from the high altitude Tso Moriri region of Ladakh.
A support group has been set up in Geneva,
"Les Amis de Ladakh Heart Foundation"

CP 1272,

This group has kindly donated a vehicle, which has been vital for both the everyday running and the far-flung activities of the Foundation.
