SCHOOL SPONSORSHIP

Loden Foundation’s flagship initiative, the Child Sponsorship Programme, is dedicated to supporting school-going children across Bhutan by covering essential annual expenses such as uniforms, stationery, and equipment. The programme was established to ensure that children from underprivileged backgrounds are not deprived of their fundamental right to education due to financial hardship. By alleviating the burden of these basic educational expenses, the initiative enables students to remain in school with dignity and continuity. To sustain this effort, Loden Foundation mobilises generous contributions from individual benefactors and institutional partners both within Bhutan and internationally. Each sponsor is thoughtfully matched with a specific child, fostering a meaningful and accountable connection between donor and beneficiary while safeguarding the child’s well-being.
Under the current support framework, Loden provides Nu. 6,000 annually for each child studying below Class VIII, and Nu. 8,000 for students from Classes IX to XII. The programme extends its reach across the full spectrum of foundational education, supporting children enrolled in mainstream schools from Pre-Primary through Class XII, as well as young learners under the age of eighteen pursuing monastic education. Through this sustained and compassionate investment, the Loden Child Sponsorship Programme continues to remove financial barriers, empower young learners, and uphold the belief that access to education is both a right and a shared societal responsibility.
