Donation focus: Nourishment<br />
Those who suffer from hunger face deprivation,<br />
disease, decreased intellectual capacity,<br />
lethargy, poor performance, poverty and thus<br />
early death. In many regions of the world<br />
malnutrition is a major problem, affecting a<br />
large percentage of the population. That’s why<br />
ROKPA operates soup kitchens in Nepal and<br />
South Africa and supports monks and nuns in<br />
Tibet with food grants. Every year ROKPA<br />
helps thousands of people in need in this way.<br />
Example: Shanti / Soup<br />
Kitchen in Nepal<br />
Shanti lost her parents and lives with<br />
a poor aunt who has four children of<br />
her own to feed. Shanti has to do a lot of work at home<br />
to earn her food. She was able to eat at the ROKPA Soup<br />
Kitchen for almost three months during the winter.<br />
Thanks to our help she also now finally has the chance<br />
to go to school!<br />
