Help Sri Lanka
If you can take your eyes off the spices, saris and jewellery in the markets and venture out to the beaches that loop the island you’ll find a tropical paradise that lives up to its reputation. Hop over the splash of sea separating the island from India and help Sri Lanka by working on a number of projects in schools, wildlife sanctuaries and community centres. Check out the projects we work with on the island and you’re sure to find a way to help Sri Lanka that grabs your attention.
There are plenty of good reasons to come and help Sri Lanka; the country has a recent history punctuated by natural and economic disasters. The tsunami of 2004 delivered a massive blow to the island but the economic crisis is even more pervasive and holds many in its grip. Given the problems here, the locals will welcome you with open arms and helping Sri Lanka will leave you knowing you’ve made a difference during your stay.
