Shambhala’s Tibet Children’s Initiative supports a group of disabled men and women making handmade puppets in the old city area of Lhasa by a group of disabled women. The puppets are sold with an accompanying children’s storybook in a monk’s bag in sets of five, with each set including the yak, antelope, sheep, wolf, and mastiff characters from the book. The puppets can be used for educational purposes，to enhance awareness of the environment，respect for the disadvantaged，knowledge of Tibetan ecology，and importance of sustainable development.

100% of proceeds from the project go directly to assisting handicapped Tibetan artisans as well as towards helping to sustain the unique culture of Tibet.Learn more about Tibet Children’s Initiative.
