Our Story
Sakya Monlam Foundation is a non-profit NGO established solely for cultural reasons. It was created for the purpose of organizing annual Sakya Monlam Prayer Festivals. The goals of the Foundation are to promote peace and harmony in every corner of the world, to restore Buddhism to its rightful status, and, thus, to strive in service of Buddha Dharma.
Following the advice of our refuge and patron, His Holiness the 41st Sakya Trizin, the supreme head of the Sakya order of Tibetan Buddhism, the foundation decided to oversee and monitor the educational development of monks in Sakya monasteries. It will also conduct awareness campaigns to promote an understanding of Buddhism in society at large and at the same time, strive for environmental preservation.
