About Project

Founded over 20 years ago, Khay Mar Ya Ma Nunnery School initially focused on teaching religious studies and Vipassana meditation. In the early stages, the school only provided training in these two areas. However, as the number of orphaned children and novice monks increased, the school expanded its mission to also offer secular education, striving to support the children’s academic and spiritual growth.

The school was fortunate to receive a generous donation of a 3-story building from Tzu Chi Foundation of Taiwan. As the number of students continued to grow, the school had to rent additional land to accommodate the increasing demand for education. Recognizing the need for more classroom space, the school’s founder sought support for a larger building. As a result, a 3-story building with 9 classrooms was donated to the school. In addition, 41 computers were also donated to enable the students to receive computer education.
