Planned Giving

Plant lasting seeds of generosity

Please consider making an auspicious and enduring connection with Kilung Rinpoche’s teaching or humanitarian activities by including Kilung Foundation or Pema Kilaya* as a beneficiary in your estate plan.

Leaving a gift in your will or trust contributes to sustaining the activities of Dza Kilung Rinpoche, the future of the Dharma, and the work of Kilung Foundation or Pema Kilaya for generations to come. You may designate your gift for either teaching or humanitarian purposes.*

Your gift to Kilung Foundation serves and supports Dza Kilung Rinpoche’s Tibetan Buddhist teachings throughout the world through his teaching organization, Pema Kilaya, while helping to preserve and maintain the ancient Buddhist culture in his home community of Dzachuka through Tibet-based humanitarian projects.
