Tibetan students lead grassroots effort to aid earthquake victims
The team began to purchase supplies at dawn on Jan 9. Led by Dekyi Drolma, the team traveled to Lhasa, the regional capital, to procure their supply list, including warm clothing, hygiene products, canned food and solar-powered flashlights — prioritizing essentials for the harsh winter, especially for children and women. The next day, they delivered the resources to Mangphu township.
"I felt comforted seeing children put on new boots. Their smiles showed that our efforts made a difference," said Dekyi Drolma.
The team distributed supplies based on local needs, receiving heartfelt gratitude from residents. For families who lost loved ones, they provided comfort and support through financial donations.
As the campaign came to an end, the students visited temples in Dranang on Jan 13 to pray for the earthquake victims.
