Title
Boulder - Lhasa Sister City! - Helping Tibetans in Tibet
Description
Boulder-Lhasa Sister City Project (BLSCP) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) public charity formed in 1986 in Boulder, Colorado, which develops non-political exchanges of mutual benefit with Lhasa, Tibet, including surrounding areas, in health care, education, environment, technology, and culture. Boulder is Tibet's only sister city in the United States. Lhasa is one of Boulder's six official sister cities, authorized by the Boulder City Council.
President Eisenhower promoted a people-to-people initiative in 1956 to involve individuals in citizen diplomacy, with the hope that personal relationships, fostered through sister city, county, and state affiliations, would lessen the chance of future world conflicts. Sister Cities International (SCI) is the national membership association for sister city, county, and state programs in the United States. SCI currently serves over 2,100 communities in more than 120 countries around the world. Boulder is a member of SCI.
We invite you to explore our Web site and contact us for further information. BLSCP is helping Tibetans in Tibet through programs in Solar Electricity, Health Care, and Education. They will deeply appreciate your support through donations for our programs or for general use. If you are qualified, interested, and available, you may be able to participate directly in the development, fundraising, and implementation of our programs.
