I’m still in a haunted feeling after all the news I read, and hear about people in the Vanni camps in Sri Lanka. I’m not sure who is right here, if it is LTTE or the GoSL, and I’m not here to judge either one of them.
Only people in loss are those innocent souls living inside camps (no matter it is Vanni camp, or in Refugee camps in various part of TamilNadu). I’ve been thinking for a long time how can I be of a little help towards these people. I along with few of my colleagues, friends, cousins are trying to help few of the students from a few Refugee camps in TN to pursue their higher education. We choose to help for education because there are a quite a few already doing a lot of work in taking care of the food, other expenses, and we believe giving a person education will enable him/her to light up few others in those camps.
We are trying to create a formal channel to collate the funds, and help the students with. We are also thinking to connect the students directly with the donors of the money so that they can be sure of their money going directly towards the education.
If you want to help too, please email me – rakkimk@hotmail.com, or call me +91-97400.84927.
