The Milarepa Fund
In May of 1994, the Milarepa Fund was officially launched. The Beastie Boys created Milarepa with royalty money from two songs from their fourth LP “Ill Communication.” Milarepa began as a foundation through which the Beastie Boys could give grants and support the cause, and soon became a fully operational organization setting up events like the Tibetan Freedom Concerts.

Membership: The Right Choice

Any successful grassroots movement starts with a group of dedicated people working together with synchronized watches and easy-to-read blueprints for action. In order to provide our amazing group of supporters with a better system of operation, Milarepa became a membership organization. Through membership, we have organized ourselves into a well-oiled machine, ready to meet Dr. Evil head on.

Our members receive a Milarepa ID card, action alerts, bumper stickers, our bi-annual zine, email updates and early notice of events. Following the lead of such prestigious organizations as the Free Masons, the Benevolent Order of Elks and the KISS ARMY, we hope that our “Yak LOdge” will give members the skills and connections necessary to be the power brokers of the next century.
