Challenge

Flooding in Sri Lanka has devastated entire communities. Heavy rains have destroyed homes, submerged villages, and cut off access to essential services. Children are among the most affected: Families have lost homes, clothing, and basic possessions. Clean drinking water is contaminated, raising risks of dengue, diarrhea, and waterborne diseases. Many children have no food, dry clothing, or safe places to sleep. Schools are damaged or being used as temporary shelters.

Solution

HELPING CHILDREN INC will deliver rapid emergency assistance to affected families. Our response includes: 1. Emergency Food Packs Rice, dhal, tinned fish, baby food, biscuits, and essential dry rations. 2. Clean Water & Hygiene Kits Bottled water, purification tablets, soap, sanitary items, towels, and disinfectant. 3. Clothing & Essentials for Children Dry clothing, blankets, mosquito nets, shoes, and school materials where needed. 4. Temporary Shelter Support

Long-Term Impact

This project ensures families can: safely return home once floodwaters recede rebuild their lives with dignity prevent disease outbreaks help children return to school quickly restore food security and stability By meeting urgent needs, we help reduce long-term trauma and health risks while restoring hope.
