Dhammajarinee Witthaya School

Dhammajarinee Witthaya School (DWS) is the first and only free girls Buddhist boarding school administered by nuns in Thailand. 

For over two decades, DWS has provided disadvantaged girls in Thailand, free of charge:
  • a safe place to live, meals and medical care
  • meditation and traditional Buddhist instruction
  • quality, award-winning education​

Without this opportunity, the problems of  poverty, neglect, and abuse would only continue when these girls grow up and have children of their own. 

When You Give to Dhammajarinee Witthaya School

You change lives. Orphaned or disadvantaged Thai boys have always had the option to study at Buddhist monasteries. DWS is the only school to provide a similar opportunity for Thai girls.
You prevent abuse. Poverty and lack of education have often led disadvantaged Thai girls to be lured into dangerous and degrading occupations. Education improves their future opportunities.
You do more. Having met our goal to double the amount of classroom space at Dhammajarinee Witthaya School, we are now upgrading our support capabilities and expanding the facilities for laundry, dining, meditation, and more.
