UPDATE – BULIAN VILLAGE NEEDS OUR HELP

We are delighted to inform you that the first of the three shrines, destroyed by a fire, was rebuilt on November 16, 2024. It was a touching moment when the villagers knew that one of the holy spirits could return to its shrine.  

We are still accepting donations to rebuild the other two shrines and to reach our fundraising goal. Komang and his community can only do this in stages, as each shrine’s birthday (celebration) is different, so they have to rebuild them one at a time. They hope to complete the project by the end of 2025, when all three spirits will peacefully be home in the village.

Thank you for supporting this effort on behalf of Bulian Village, Komang, and the ATJ Foundation. Production for the second shrine will start soon.

Please join us by donating any amount you can. ATJ will cover all administrative and wire transfer fees, ensuring that every cent you donate directly benefits the village. Komang will keep us informed about the progress of the rebuilding efforts. You can make your tax-deductible contribution at ATJ Foundation. Thank you for your compassion and support.
