This charity organization was founded by Bernadette and George Deden in 2003 with the aim of helping the poor and needy in Sri Lanka in the most direct and cost-effective way possible: ideally all items and monies donated should reach those in need, and as little as possible of the available funds should be expended for 'administration and other costs'. We lay a great deal of emphasis on transparency and accountability: donors will be furnished with all proof of our work, if they request to seek specific related information.
Currently we have a project to get a water well drilled and reinforced for a poor family. The related costs are considerable. We need to raise the related funds as soon as we can. For donations and information relating to the subject please call Bernadette at tel. no. 2983 8744.
The followwing children's clothes for girls and boys from age 3 to age 9 are needed urgently fo distribution to the needy in Sri Lanka: 100% cotton T-shirts and shorts / trousers; vests and briefs; socks.
Please contact Bernadette at tel. no. 2983 8744 for donations.
We appreciate your donations of used children's and adult books, fiction or non-ficition. We will sell these on the quarterly fela markets taking place at Discovery Bay Plaza. Incidentally, the next DB Flea Market will take place on April 11, 2010, from 12 noon till 5:00 PM. Look out for our booth!
