Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The bridge fund's mission is to promote sustainable economic development, environmental preservation, and heritage conservation in tibetan communities located in the provinces of gansu, sichuan, qinghai, yunnan, and the tibet autonomous region of china. Our priority is to assist the most disadvantaged tibetan communities which lack or have limited access to economic opportunities, technical skills, education, and healthcare. Our main project sites are in nomadic and semi-nomadic regions whose inhabitants rely on raising and herding livestock and are particularly vulnerable to economic and social transitions.
