Monastic Support
We fund and support the maintenance, renovation, and upgrading of the living and study facilities of monasteries and Dharma institutions, especially those of:
Sakya College, Dehradun, India
Sakya Phuntsog Phrodang, New Delhi, India
International Buddhist Academy, Kathmandu, Nepal
KAF provides funding for the hiring of architects, interior designers, and engineering consultants for such projects. Depending on the scale of a renovation project, we also coordinate and supervise work, liaising between the contractors and the institution in question.
Current Projects
Monastery-cum-Residence – New Delhi
KAF is providing full funding for the renovation, building, and upgrading of facilities at the monastery and New Delhi residence of Phuntsok Phodrang, which also functions as a residence for Sakya lineage holders. This includes the extension of the current teaching hall, living quarters, and office work area to accommodate senior tulkus, lamas, and approximately 70 student monks.
Most of the construction and renovation projects at the site been completed, although some work, such as landscaping and the building of a stupa, remain to be done.
Below, you can see images of completed work, the site plans, along with images of the renovation in progress.
