Sri Lanka Needs Us — And I’m Matching Every Dollar

Launching our $20,000 Relief Mission

Sri Lanka has been hit by a devastating cyclone. Entire villages have been buried under mudslides. Roads are gone. Homes have been destroyed. Families are stranded with no food, no clothing, and no way to leave. Children have lost everything overnight. An entire village of 800 men, women and children have been buried under a mudslide.

This country is deeply personal to me.

For years, I have worked side by side with communities in Sri Lanka, flying in to deliver food, bringing essentials to entire villages, supplying schoolchildren with packs and supplies, and building a roof for a Buddhist temple in need.

These aren’t “projects.”
These are people I know.
Faces I’ve hugged.
Children who run to the gate when we arrive.
Monks who bless us with tears in their eyes.
Families who have become family to me.

And today, those same communities are suffering in the worst way.

So I’m launching an emergency relief fundraiser and I will personally match every single dollar donated.

If we raise $20,000 together, I will double it to $40,000.

Every donation becomes twice as powerful.

Where your donation goes immediately:

Your support will fund:
• Food packs for families who have lost everything
• Clothing, blankets, shoes and basic daily essentials
• Emergency supplies for displaced families
• School materials for children who lost their belongings
• Rebuilding support for damaged homes and temples
• Transportation and on-the-ground distribution to reach villages cut off by mudslides and flooding

I am flying to Sri Lanka in January with a small team to deliver supplies by hand, and help rebuild just like we always do, face to face, village to village, family by family.

If you want to join us on the ground, you are welcome. Let me know and I can get you set up to join us.

How you can help

Even $5 can feed someone.
Even $20 can restore a child’s dignity.
Even $50 becomes $100 with the match.
Even $100 becomes $200 of life-saving impact.

Please donate if you can and please share this with your friends. Sharing is just as powerful as donating.

Your generosity becomes immediate relief for real families who have no one else coming.

Sri Lanka is hurting.
Let’s show them that love still shows up.

Thank you for helping me help them.
