Tsunami Haven Projects Society: Hand to Hand, one brick at a time....
We have built 4 pre-schools on the island of Sri Lanka since the recovery effort of the Tsunami of Dec 2004. Working with both Hindu and Buddhist survivors and marginal folks we seek out their advise where we can be of most assistance to them. Education is the long term solution. Our volunteers pay their own way to/from and during their mission. We use donated funds strictly for the projects, not to operate them. Our 25 volunteers so far have come from the medical, educational, dental, artistic, business, social work and banking communities. Canada, USA, Iran, UK, Belgium, France, Hong Kong and Australia are where our volunteers and supporters hail from. We embrace the concepts of World Peace and Equality for all. We respect all religions. The website shows our development and this BLOG updates as events occur. We are a registered non-profit society in the Province of BC. Our board of directors are an investment banker, a doctor, a dentists and a social worker. We do not nor will we have paid staff. 100% of our donations go to aid the children in need in Sri Lanka. By building small one room brick pre-school buildings the whole community benefits. After lunch when the children go home the buildings are used in the afternoons and evenings by women, teenagers and families. We have been asked to continue to build these schools. Our cost per school is around 10 thousand dollars. We have established contacts with a Buddhist priest, a Hindu priest and friends of the President of Sri Lanka who are all urging us to continue our work. We require on-going funding to do so. Please contribute what you can Thank you <> |
