Donating dry rations to needy families who are starving due to the Covid19 disaster (Day 02)

Everyone in Sri Lanka is helpless due to the corona epidemic. Think about it, what would happen if a person who was doing daily wage work was locked down for a few weeks with curfew in the country? How can a person earn a living without saving a penny?

So as soon as the curfew was lifted we next went to some difficult villages in the Siyambalanduwa area about 400 km from Colombo.

Small clay houses in sight. We even saw houses that were so small, broken, and dilapidated that at least one animal could not survive.

During the curfew period, dry food items were delivered from most shops to the villages and homes when ordered. But how could such a family with no money to live in during the curfew?

He would go to the forest, dig up a potato, boil it, add some salt and drink a cup of infusion to quench his hunger. How hungry the children must have been crying?

These families are like that. We donated a lot of dry food for a few weeks with your help. They gave insufficient thanks.
