Ladakh Emergency Disaster Appeal

Many of you will have heard the news already that recent torrential rain in Ladakh has caused much damage and loss of life. You can read more about this on His Holiness's blog on www.drukpa.org (Tomorrow Is Too Late) in which His Holiness explains the importance of Ladakh to himself personally and also to the Drukpa Lineage. We have also received the following press release from Pel Drukpa Charitable Trust, which gives a graphic description of the current situation.

Drukpa UK, on behalf of Live To Love UK, is mounting an appeal for funds to help the victims of the disaster in Ladakh. Funds raised will be sent straight away to Ladakh via Live to Love Charitable Foundation in Hong Kong.

Please visit our How To Donate page to make a donation via Paypal, using the Live To Love donation buttons.

Alternatively, you can send a cheque to Drukpa UK (Ladakh Disaster Appeal), 114 Harvist Road, London NW6 6HJ

STOP PRESS: Volunteering - Live to Love is currently mobilising specialist volunteers to travel to Ladakh to assess the situation and devise a support strategy.
