Tsumalaphy nunnery project
Unlike the monasteries for men and boys that are beneficiaries of state or private support, nunneries in Bhutan receive no government support. It is sad that so little of their potential to serve society and contribute to its collective happiness is ever realized.
The Tsumalaphy nunnery located at debsi, Thimphu is one of her majesty the queen mother’s project.
150volunteers from Royal institute of management and Bhutan Scout Association participated in the voluntary work of wall construction at the nunnery. Out of the forty scouts, 34of them were scout youth leaders and 2 of them were scout leaders of the bhutan scout association.
