Tadra Project’s mission is to provide housing, quality and culturally relevant education, basic healthcare and necessities, and love to orphaned and abandoned children from the Tibetan nomadic community in China.
How It Works
Tadra identifies children in grave need. Children are referred to Tadra and our staff visits with them to assess their need.

Essentials Housing, clothing, other basic needs are met. Children are housed in family houses and closely watched over and lovingly cared for by their house “mothers”. Thanks to our generous donors, Tadra has built high quality living facilities.
