  The Story Top

This was a happy family with a young father and mother and four lovely children. They had just obtained a housing loan and were in the process of renovating their house when all their hopes and dreams were shattered in one cruel blow. Their father was returning home for the holidays planning out the next steps he would take to complete the renovation when the train he was traveling in was toppled by the waves. The family is now surviving on the meager income that they can muster from the small paddy field belonging to them. Their immediate needs are support to settle their outstanding housing loan and assistance in completing the renovation of their house which is now only half complete.

PHASE 1 of this project has now been completed. In the first phase, we assisted the family by fixing all the required doors and windows, cementing the floor and by plastering and painting the front portion of the house. In short, we helped the family complete the front portion of their house. The completion of phase 1 was marked by a small ceremony held on 01 April.

PHASE 2 of this project has now commenced, in this phase the kitchen is being plastered and a bathroom is being constructed.
