At the heart of the Bodhi Tree Educational Foundation is a deep commitment to education, empowerment, and transformation. We believe that true learning happens when hands, hearts, and minds work together in service of the whole community. Through practical, hands-on initiatives, we empower children, youth, and families to build lives of dignity, resilience, and purpose.
Permaculture Garden and Farming
Managed by teenagers with special needs, our garden is more than a green space—it’s a powerful learning ground. Here, students learn organic farming, water conservation, and garden maintenance.
The produce supports our school, while plant sales to government nurseries create sustainable income. Every plant nurtured becomes a step toward self-confidence, financial independence, and inclusion.
The Garden of Smiles
This vocational training project supports young women from surrounding villages by teaching sewing, embroidery, and tailoring.
The women handcraft beautiful cotton bags and textiles sold to visitors and partners abroad. With every stitch, they rebuild self-worth and gain the skills to shape their own futures—economically and emotionally.
Child Playschools within the Villages
To ensure access to early education, Bodhi Tree has established village-based playschools for children aged 4 to 6.
These classrooms eliminate the need for long commutes, making learning accessible and community-centred. Children are gently prepared for the transition into formal education at Bodhi Tree School, while staying rooted in their local culture and environment.
Impact and Community Building
Each initiative at Bodhi Tree is a thread in a larger tapestry of compassion, resilience, and interdependence. By equipping individuals with practical skills and meaningful opportunities, we build a foundation for long-term growth and collective wellbeing.
​
Whether you are a young child learning your first letters, a young woman finding your voice through sewing, or a college student seeking soulful experience—Bodhi Tree School is a place to grow, to give, and to become.
