Donate Funds to the Tibet Museum

The Tibet Museum project was made possible through the kind support of our donors, both individuals and organisations. Your financial contribution can help us bring history alive through exhibitions on Tibet’s history, culture and tradition.

If you are interested in contributing to the Tibet Museum you can do it by sending us a cheque or bank draft in favor of “SARD” (Social and Resource Development Fund). Payment by credit card is not currently available.

Your support will benefit the core programs of the museum: the Tibet Awareness Program, the Digitization of our collections, Capacity building for the museum staff, the Photo Identification project, the Family Photo Album Collection, traveling exhibitions, and others.

Supporters will receive a letter of acknowledgment and will be subscribed to our e-newsletter. Their support will be acknowledged in our newsletter.

Please contact us for further information or if you are interested in sponsoring a specific activity of the Museum.
