The Karma Underground is a group who support the people of Tibet, and their goal of remaining a unique and unified culture – a culture that has been cultivating compassion for all beings for the last 1300 years.  They assist with logistics and we raise money to fund projects that help the Tibetan people.  They are currently raising funds to build a school for nomadic girls.

KarmaBlast is an online network created by Bodhicitta Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to helping those who are less fortunate. Each KarmaBlast project is submitted by our support network of constituents. A KarmaBlast project must be under $500,000 USD and have a tangible deliverable at the end of the project.
