Tibetan Healing Fund ( THF ) is a not-for-profit humanitarian organization established to improve primary healthcare and education for rural Tibetan women and children in the Tibetan regions of P.R. China. THF was created in response to the needs expressed by Tibetan communities in P.R. China and the vision of Dr. Kunchok Gyaltsen, a Tibetan medical doctor and Buddhist Monk. THF projects are designed to meet the acute needs of the community and provide for long-term sustainability using transparent and participatory methods while incorporating local and traditional knowledge. All projects needs are initiated by the Tibetan communities. THF's priority is to assist the most disadvantaged Tibetan communities, which lack or have limited access to health care, education and technical skills and training. THF is unique in many ways; it was founded by a dedicated Tibetan Buddhist monk and who is well educated in both Tibetan education and the western education system. The organization is governed and managed by a Board of Directors and dedicated volunteers based throughout the United States.
