Project Yangchen Ling Update from Lama Sonam Rinpoche

Dear Becky,

We are happy to let you know that we have raised a third of our goal for Project Yangchen Ling, and want to express our deep gratitude for the outpouring of love and generosity from Sangha and friends.

As you may know, Yangchen Ling, the dwelling at Pema Osel Ling where Drubpon Pema Rigdzin (aka Lama Freddie) lives is no longer viable and needs immediate extensive work, forcing him to temporarily relocate.

Lama Freddie is a backbone of our activity. It is vital to the Vajrayana Foundation to provide a safe and stable dwelling that will ensure the continuity of activities for our dharma stewards now and into the future.

Watch Lama Sonam Rinpoche's update on Project Yangchen Ling:

Now we are thrilled to let you know that a $5,000 matching grant was put forward by a generous donor!

Every dollar you donate will be doubled until we meet the match.

Help us reach our matching goal with your tax-deductible donation of any size!

This is an opportunity for all of us to create a stable infrastructure that will ensure our three-year retreat and other dharma activities at Pema Osal Ling continue without interruption, now and into the future.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,

The Vajrayana Foundation
