Trisong Grants
Khyentse Foundation Trisong Grants were designed to identify and support individuals and organizations that are working to promote mental health and well-being in the world, through projects and programs that have a foundation in the Buddha’s wisdom. In difficult and turbulent times, people may not know where to turn for help. Khyentse Foundation’s aspiration was to find new ways for people to experience the benefits of the Buddha’s teachings. Projects awarded have not always been overtly Buddhist, but the projects are rooted in Buddhist view and practice and share in values that alleviate suffering, encourage emotional well-being, and strengthen both physical and mental health.
As of March 2026, we are not accepting applications for Trisong Grants. Khyentse Foundation is now in its 25th year of operations, and while this program has been an integral part of our story, we recognize that in this age of Artificial Intelligence, we must adapt and change. We will use this hiatus to reevaluate how programs like this can be of even greater benefit in the future.
