Project Narrative Summary

1. The Socio-Economic Plight of Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is categorized as an underdeveloped nation marked by high poverty, with 35% of the population living in poverty and 42% subsisting on less than $2.00 daily. The devastating 30-year civil war (ended 2010) severely exacerbated this plight, causing mass displacement, the destruction of settlements, and widespread poverty within the Muslim communities of the Northern, North-Central, and Eastern provinces.

2. Introduction to Orphan Sponsorship (كفالة الأيتام)

Al Hima Islamic Services manages the nationwide Orphan Sponsorship project and operates the Dar Al-Yateem Orphanage in the Northern Province. The program ensures holistic orphan care through education, professional training, and personality development

3. The Critical Need for Sponsorship

Orphans often lose their primary source of care and dignity upon their father's death. Your sponsorship for just $20 USD per month provides the financial stability necessary to secure an orphan’s future and covers their basic needs (education, food, health)
