Several students of H.E. Namkha Drimed Rinpoche have developed
their own fundraising ideas and projects to help raise monies
for the New Treasures project in Pharping, Nepal. The primary
focus of Ripa Ladrang Foundation's fundraising efforts during
the Year 2000, the beginning of the New Millennium, is the New
Treasures project (see Web Site section on "New Treasures Project"
for more details). It is very important that we meet our goal
this year for this vital Buddhist Monastery & Retreat Center so
that it can be constructed during the projected time frame for
it.
Here we have one student's project currently. If anyone else
has similar projects they would like to offer, it would be welcomed.

Photographer Ana Fuentes is offering several beautiful photographs
she has taken of H.E. Namkha Drimed Rinpoche as a way of making
donations to the New Treasures project in Nepal.
See her 4 photos shown herein. Each 8x10 photo
is $20.00. Of that amount, $15.00 (or 75%) will be donated to
Ripa Ladrang Foundation for the monastery project. $5.00 (or 25%)
will be used for cost of photo development and first class mailing
of the photo to the person ordering.
If you want photos larger than 8x10 please call us to make arrangements
and we will discuss special pricing, with most of the monies going
into the monastery fund as well (anything above cost of developing
and shipping).
To place orders, contact Ana E. Fuentes at "espfoto@mindspring.com"
and send a cc: of your email to "ripa_ladrang@hotmail.com".
Checks should be paid to Ripa Ladrang Foundation and sent to the
foundation address. Inquiries can be made at (415) 905-8811 or
