Dear friends/ Sri Lankans,
Hope & pray you all are healthy & taking proper precautions not to get infected with Corona Virus (COVID-19).
Due to continued curfew in our motherland (Sri Lanka) for over 3 weeks, many of our natives are suffering with not having to work, or go out to buy initial needs. SL Government & armed forces are trying to reach out to many affected people. But they have not reached many yet.
Any additional help by any individual/ organization is greatly welcomed by thousands of desperate families.
Majority of affected Sri Lankans:
3-wheeler drivers
Lottery sellers/ kadala sellers in towns
Restaurant employees
Construction workers (masons, carpenters, etc.)
And many more workers whose families depend on daily income.
One of my best friends together with a group of genuine/ tender hearted friends in SL have taken initiative and distributed 2000 packages to families in need in the 1st phase ( in Boralesgamuwa, Nugegoda, Meethotamulla, Padukka).
2nd phase of donations is on the way to deliver packages (goods worth Rs. 700/ea.) to 5000 families.
Each packages includes:
Rice 3kg, Dhal 1kg, 2 coconuts, Onions 500g, TVP 200g.

Our involvement:
We have undertaken the role to publicize this effort among Sri Lankans in Southern California. This pathway provides an opportunity to allow fellow citizens to make donations towards providing dry rations to COVID-19 & curfew affected families in Sri Lanka.
