Kidney Transplant for Buddhist Monk in Nepal

***Update*** Thank you to everyone for your support. This fundraiser is now closed and is no longer accepting donations. The medical procedure is now completed. Please find below an update.

Kushok Lobsang Chomphel has now fully recovered from a kidney transplant. Now he can live a normal, healthy life. Even his Mother, who was his kidney donor, is also fine and well. It was an honour to help him, and I could not have achieved this without your help. I want to say thank you to all the supporters who donated and for your unwavering support. I hope to support many more people in need of help.

“Thank you… because of you, I have a new life”- Lobsang Chomphel

Here is a message from Lobsang Chomphel to everyone who kindly donated.

With regards,

Lama Lobsang Topgyal

Hello, my name is Lama Lobsang Topgyal. I am a Tibetan Monk residing in Cardiff, Wales. I am currently in Nepal where I am providing food and medical supplies to vulnerable communities.

 

Here in Kathmandu, I met a 22 year old Nepali Monk called Lobsang Chepel. He is very sick as both his kidneys have failed. He requires an urgent kidney transplant.

 

The surgery will cost $20,000, a large amount of money that he cannot afford. I met his parents who are from the remote mountain foothills and they cannot afford the treatment fees to save their son’s life.

 

Please donate and help us to save Lobsang’s life.

 

Thank you
