Children's Clinic, Mawella Camp, Sri Lanka (Completed)

It is beautiful to see that today, more than one year after we established it, our clinic keeps blossoming and serving the families in the area that have been severely affected by the tsunami. Dr. Ranjith, supported by his assistant Dimuthu, visits the clinic twice a week, it is a fixture in the community, and as I could personally witness: Long lines show how much it is needed. Today, more than one year after the tsunami, many of the families are still living in the refugee camp. We will continue to support the clinic long-term and will establish more visits if the need will arise.
