LHA Charitable Trust
Lha Charitable Trust – Institute For Social Work and Education (Lha) is an award-winning, grassroots, nonprofit organization, and one of the largest Tibetan social work organizations based in Dharamsala, India. It is the first organization that was established in exile to develop a primary focus on Tibetan social work. The Lha Charitable Trust was founded in 1997 and is registered as a charitable trust by the Himachal Pradesh government of India. Lha is managed by Tibetan refugees, is supported by volunteers and contributors from around the world, and serves refugees, the local Indian population and people from the surrounding Himalayan region. In a short period of time, the organization "has grown in leaps and bounds, from a small start-up with two computers to one of largest community based Tibetan NGOs in Dharamsala." ''Lha'' is a sacred Tibetan word that means "superior body" or "energy body", whereby the "Lha body" exists between the physical body and the mind.()
The Trust offers volunteers and students the opportunity to engage in community service and social work on a permanent or temporary basis. On the website of Gaden Relief Projects (an organization that helps to preserve Tibetan culture in India, Mongolia, and Tibet), Lha is recognized as one of the organizations that offers volunteering opportunities.
==Background==
Since 1959, Tibetans living in Tibet have been subject to the policies of the People's Republic of China and the Communist Party of China—under this regime, the Tibetan people's freedom of expression and political action are extremely limited. Consequently, over the past fifty years, many thousands of Tibetans have chosen to leave their homeland in pursuit of the human rights that have been denied under Chinese rule. Every year, new refugees arrive in India, after an arduous journey through the Himalayas, and countless refugees arrive with little or no education, speak only Tibetan, and possess no viable job skills to support themselves and their families. Furthermore, it is extremely difficult for adult and elderly refugees to receive an adequate education in India due to the strict school system requirements, as educational policy prevents adults over the age of eighteen years from enrolling in school. Under such conditions, Lha plays a crucial role in facilitating the transition of Tibetan refugees from their homeland to the Indian community by providing long-term rehabilitation and educational resources for Tibetan adults.
