Having lived in exile for over four decades, Tibetan refugees today face the challenge of preserving their cultural identity and its various forms of traditional arts. While the Tibetan Government in Exile under the leadership of His Holiness the Dalai Lama invests great effort in working towards this endeavor, there is still the need to ensure that it continues at all levels.

The Samten Tse Charitable Society (STCS) has always been delighted to sponsor and support the preservation of art and culture of Tibet. Through the years it has been involved in providing support and aid to such organizations that are truly dedicated to preservation of traditional art and culture systems.

Under such a program, STCS also provides aid to talented artists.
