ITS NOT ALL PLAY

I would like to highlight the good work that people are supporting here in Sri Lanka. Previously I mentioned a couple who have started their own little orphanage. These children have been abandoned or their parents have died. They were previously living with relatives who were just unable to support them. They have been taken in and given food, clothing and a loving mother and father.

This couple, their own son and his wife, the grandmother and the 12 orphans all live together. As the oldest of the orphans is now seventeen, space is becoming a real issue in the house. To give the children some more room they have been trying to build an additional building, with three new bedrooms and its own kitchen and bathroom. This has previously proven to be out of reach. Feeding and paying school fees does not leave a lot left over for extras.

Fortunately, as a result of the numerous trips made to Sri Lanka, people have seen the work that this family is doing and the neccessary funds have been provided to this family. This has meant that the building has gone from a shell to completion in a few short months. We would like to thank those involved and look forward to what else can be achieved.
