    This fundraiser will benefit

    Limboo Community

    from Siliguri, West Bengal

In the heart of the Himalayas, the Limbu community, over 700,000 strong, faces a silent threat. Their rich heritage, whispered in their unique Kirat-Sirijonga language – a script as elegant as the mountain peaks themselves – is at risk of fading. Imagine a world without the infectious joy of the Limbu dance, the rhythmic heartbeat of the dhol drum, or the soulful cries of the Limbu flute. These aren't just performances; they're stories passed down for generations, a vibrant tapestry woven with love, resilience, and a deep connection to their land.

But precious cultural materials like hand-written Mundhum texts, detailing their history and rituals, are vulnerable. The knowledge of their elders, the keepers of tradition, is a treasure teetering on the edge of disappearing.

Your support can change this story. With your donation, we can:

* **Document their culture and practices:**  Create Heritage museum and research center
* **Preserve cultural materials:**  Archive precious Mundhum texts and other artifacts.
* **Empower Limbu artists:**  Support workshops and events to keep their traditions alive.

Together, let's not let this vibrant culture become a fading echo. Donate today and help us ensure the Limbu legacy continues to inspire for generations to come. Be a champion for a community whose spirit is as strong as the Himalayas themselves.
