“As we understand, as human beings, our greatness lies, not so much in being able to remake the world, but to make the world a better place…
By doing the best we can, for ourselves not, but for the needy, where it is needed…”
HISTORY:
No Retreat, No Surrender download On December 26, 2004 a massive underwater earthquake triggered a Tsunami that unleashed its natural terror, resulting in one of the most catastrophic, deadliest disasters known in the history of man.
Even several months after the Tsunami, we realized among the community in and around Tangalle, how many people were still having so many hardships in their lives: children not attending schools, parents running here and there to get donations and to government officers to prepare and replace essential and necessary documents, totally neglecting their little kids at home. School girls were left alone at home or in orphanages without any protection…
In this situation, we took on the responsibility to start to do something for the neediest ones.
We joined forces with our friends from Europe (Germany, England and France), the USA and Sri Lanka to raise funds to provide immediate and short-term humanitarian assistance.
