Sharminub Knowledge Rising is a humanitarian association that contributes to the improvement of living conditions for children and young adults in Kathmandu, Nepal and Kalimpong, India.
Our aid supports the education, food, lodging, and clothes as well as the general living conditions of the students. Knowledge Rising aims to offer aid while always maintaining respect for the diverse identities and philosophical, religious, and political convictions of the different geographical locations in which we act.
“The emphasis and direction of education should not just be about accumulating information to serve outer wealth, but to help develop consciousness, to help young people nurture their innate values of wisdom and compassion for the benefit of society.”
Thaye Dorje, the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa
