TEHOR KYIDUK

The Tehor Tibetan Organization of Minnesota, a registered nonprofit with 501(c)(3) status, was established in the early 2000s by Tibetan Tehor immigrants. Our community, consisting of approximately 300 members primarily residing in the Twin Cities area, comprises individuals who have traversed challenging journeys from Tibet to India and eventually to the United States.

Given Tibet’s status as one of the least-free countries globally, our members carry a unique cultural heritage that necessitates preservation. With a strong commitment to preserving Tibetan cultural identity, our organization seeks to address the cultural and social needs of our community, especially the younger generation.

Our organization’s mission to promote human values, preserve Tibetan Buddhist culture and the environment, and safeguard all aspects of our rich heritage, including language, literature, religion, history, arts, crafts, and traditions for the future generations.

Promotion of Human Values: The organization aims to foster essential human values such as compassion, forgiveness, tolerance, contentment, and self-discipline. Through various programs and activities, including workshops, seminars, and community events, we seek to instill these values in our members, particularly the younger generation, who are navigating the complexities of dual cultural identities.

Preservation of Tibetan Buddhist Culture and Environment: Central to our mission is the preservation of Tibetan Buddhist culture and its harmonious relationship with the environment.

Preservation of Tibetan Cultural Heritage: Recognizing the urgent need to safeguard our unique Tibetan cultural heritage, the organization will offer a range of educational programs, language classes, artistic workshops, and cultural events. These initiatives will empower our community members to actively participate in preserving and promoting Tibetan language, literature, arts, crafts, and traditions, ensuring their continuity for future generations.
