Ashoka Grants

BackgroundFor those who are seeking ways to preserve and promote the dharma and working to increase dharma activity around the world in innovative and enduring ways, we have the Ashoka Grants, for programs and projects that fall outside the criteria for Buddhist Studies Scholarships, Individual Practice Grants, or other awards. Khyentse Foundation Ashoka Grants aim to identify and support organizations and individuals working to increase dharma activity around the world. Have you written a Buddhist story for children? Are you translating Buddhist texts into your local language? Do you have a proposal for research on a Buddhist topic? Tell us how your idea will help the dharma flourish. The Ashoka Grants committee considers applications from organizations and individuals who are actively engaged in projects related to Buddhism. The foundation does not accept applications that are for building and construction projects, applications that are incomplete or that do not adequately explain.
