Trace Foundation

Mission Statement

Trace Foundation supports the continuity of Tibetan culture and language, and strengthens the ability of Tibetan communities within China to meet their own needs. We implement and fund projects that integrate culture and development goals and respect environmental principles. Our projects fall within four sectors: culture, education, health, and rural development.

The Foundation works cooperatively with local partners in order to bring about long-term social and environmental benefits, and ensure that communities are at the center of the development process.

Trace Foundation is a non-profit, non-governmental organization based in New York City with field offices in China. It has no political or religious affiliations.
