The dream of the original group of nuns that started Dhammajarinee 33 years ago was simple and profound: Make impoverished girls without educational opportunity safe, self-reliant, and good citizens in their life.
The nuns’ grassroots effort to change the lives of so many young girls is a dream that is now shared with generous supporters like you all around the world.
Good News: This season’s donation bonus opportunity is coming fast!

How does GlobalGiving work?
In February 2020 we began using the widely respected fundraising platform GlobalGiving to receive US tax-deductible donations. Our initial goal was to raise $96,000 to cover student expenses for 100 students for one year. The essential support that GlobalGiving generated inspired us to continue. Each year the project goal gets raised to reflect our annual needs to support Dhammajarinee. With your kind help, we have raised approximately $77,000 a year.
GlobalGiving transfers the funds raised each month, and the school immediately uses them to cover student expenses. We are grateful to our monthly donors who provide a reliable source of funds flowing to Dhammajarinee from GlobalGiving.
Each year, we participate in three GlobalGiving bonus campaigns. These campaigns are crucial for bringing us closer to our annual project goal. We appreciate how generously you contribute during these campaigns.
Again,18 September will start the next bonus campaign. We will send a reminder.
Project reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.
If you donate to this project or have donated to this project, you can recieve an email when this project posts a report. You can also subscribe for reports without donating.
