Opening Your Heart to Bhutan

Help us build an essential Teachers' block in East Bhutan

Our highly effective charity built a 70-student vocation centre for disabled children. They have incredible teachers for their life and work skills, but these teachers must be on-site. They so deserve support and recognition for their work.

Story

We need to reward the wonderful teachers and their vital skills

We really need your help to ensure we have all the funds needed to build this essential facility. The special needs campus currently has around 70 students and does an amazing job at giving them life skills and vocational skills with which they can gain employment. The incredible teachers who teach them are a key part of this and need to be properly rewarded and retained. To this end we need to build an accommodation block of ten self-contained units. Please help us do this.

Opening Your Heart to Bhutan is an incredibly efficient charity

An outstanding 92p in every £ goes to our beneficiaries. This we achieve because of the dedication of the UK-based Trustees and supporters, all of whom volunteer their time for free.

We’ve been going for nearly ten years and are enormously proud of our extraordinary achievements during this time.
