Introduction

A national community of like-minded individuals with the shared intention to alleviate poverty and suffering in Sri Lanka.

To channel Zakat and Sadaqa into projects that will directly connect families to families; donors to recipients; and persons to persons. It is expected to deliver help on the ground through local partnerships, networks, and individuals, connecting them with local projects that have a clear vision to achieve the objectives.

The objective is to help change lives by meeting basic needs: food, housing, education, career counseling, and employment, designed to empower greater self-sufficiency, new hope, and a more sustainable future – a handshake, not a handout.
