Pray for Sri Lanka

The Sri Lanka Association of New York (SLANY) has created a “Go Fund Me” account where 100% of funds collected will be transferred to a special account that has been set up by His Eminence Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith, of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Colombo for helping the victims of the terrible attack that took place on Easter Sunday morning.

In this context, under the leadership and guidance of His Eminence Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith, all fund received will be used for the following.

·        Psycho-social and pastoral support program for the traumatized victims in order to be in solidarity with them and to be of support in rebuilding and empowering their lives.

·        Taking care of large number of children who have been orphaned and left destitute – these children will need help both in the short and long term

·         Helping many families where the bread winner perished during the bomb blast

·         Helping families with healthcare related expenses where victims were injured


When it comes to helping in times of need, every cent definitely counts!! So if you have the means, please contribute. Your contribution can go a long way towards the suffering families of the victims and survivors of this tragic terrorist attack.
