Amala and Pala’s Jewelry
When retired factory workers Pencho and Tsering Rabgey decided to donate Pencho’s retirement savings to build the Chungba Primary School, they had little idea of the journey that lay before them.
Over a decade later, the Chungba school has become the model rural school in the entire prefecture, a region of nearly a million Tibetans. And Pencho and Tsering have been there each step of the way. The Tibetan couple still lives in the small Canadian town of Lindsay, Ontario. But their hearts are in the remote mountains of Chungba, where now over six hundred rural Tibetan children receive outstanding education in the Chungba Primary and Middle Schools.
In their effort to meet the special needs of the some of the most disadvantaged students and their families, Tsering and Pencho Rabgey have developed their own line of hand-crafted contemporary Tibetan jewelery. Made by Tsering and Pencho themselves, each piece in their collection draws on traditional Tibetan stones, patterns or motifs, while their unique design updates the look with a modern twist. Custom pieces can also be designed and crafted upon request.
Proceeds from the sale of each item will go toward supporting the work of Tsering and Pencho in serving the rural Tibetan community in Chungba. For more information, contact [email protected]
