MISSION & VISION

INTRODUCTION

BHUTAN, a small country in the heart of eastern Himalayas, greatly known to the world today for its amazing development philosophy based on “GROSS NATIONAL HAPPINESS”. The same country that values the happiness of its people over economic development of the country had initiated a systematic eviction of its citizen of Nepali origin in early 1990s that forced over a hundred thousand Bhutanese of Nepali origin to leave their country under various pretexts. Since then the Bhutanese refugee had spent two decades in seven different refugee camps in eastern Nepal waiting a call for repatriation, but that never materialized. Lost hope of these frustrated refugees was rekindled when the core group of countries came up with the third country resettlement programs which formally begin in early 2008. Over the period of three years more than two thousand Bhutanese were resettled in Colorado alone and the arrival is ongoing. As the population of Bhutanese community in Colorado is growing in a rapid pace, need was felt to establish a community organization to foster integration, explore opportunity and help community to become better citizen of tomorrow in this new found homeland. Thus the bud of need finally bloom with the birth of Global Bhutanese Community Colorado, Inc (GBCC, Inc), the organization of  Bhutanese community registered in the state of Colorado.
