Your Sri Lankan Family thank you from the bottom of their hearts!!!

THANKS TO YOUR BIG-HEARTED GENEROSITY, we have raised our target amount of 10,000 euro!!!
This means the family have now been told they are to have a brand new house!
We've been told they are in shock and delighted beyond words
They wish to send you all their heartfelt gratitude!!

This must have been the best-kept secret ever!
They had no idea til the project-manager and surveyor arrived on site and told them the great news.

Myself and my partner, Michael, have the funds in a special appeal account and are transferring to Sri Lanka as required, in small amounts.

We will update the website www.srilanka.freewebspace.com
with any pictures or news of progress we receive.
We will also update you via this blog from time to time - so don't forget to subscribe to it and you will be informed directly by email of any new posts.

The family will be rehoused while the build goes on.

We have left the appeal bank account open just incase anyone else you know would like to contribute-
every building project goes over budget and this will be no exception so we want to make sure it is finished and the family not only gets a house [furnished] but the means to support themselves afterwards-
as we said before, a sewing machine and/or a bread oven could provide these wonderfully resourceful people with the tools to make a good living in their own neighbourhood.

All their neighbours are absolutely thrilled for them!
The neighbours have pretty good houses by comparison and they told us this family is really the poorest of the poor and nobody there can afford to help them at all.

So, THANK YOU everybody!!!

You are so kind to have contributed your prayers and best wishes, and of course your money too.

It is our great pleasure to co-ordinate this project on your behalf.

Please rest assured it will be completed as promised and all funds will be accounted for. Your money will only be used to buy materials and to pay the local building-project manager.

Love and Best Wishes,

bruno
