A quake in Tibet has killed thousands of people and destroyed so many homes. People's lives have been uprooted in an instant. Donate here: http://tibetanvillageproject.org/

The Tibetan Village Project is doing marvellous work in rebuilding Tibet. They teach Tibetans how to fish and run their own businesses. TVP also helps Tibetan earthquake survivors stand on theri own feet by teaching them other job skills. Here is information on what they do from the above website: 

TVP's rural educational program focuses on Tibetan language preservation and literacy. When you make a donation, it enables us to support about ten schools with 1200 students through stipends, tuition, food, warm blankets and clothing, textbooks, and school supplies. TVP also teaches visitors how to protect and respect Tibet's environment.It also raises awareness of Tibetan culture through photo exhibits, presentations and cultural events.Most rural Tibetans still face enormous challenges in healthcare. Many find it nearly impossible to access healthcare and can't afford to pay for it. TVP provides medical supplies, equipment, stipends, frequent training opportunities for healthcare workers.

There are almost four thousand dead. Even more thousands have been severly injured. Please help assist survivors, no matter where their political loyalties lie.

Please consider donating or reposting. Thank you so much if you do. This is so terrible and heartbreaking.
