Testimonials from
the Fields: “
We have been given food and other items but no one came our way to
help us get out of the mental trauma. We are very grateful to
Sarvodaya for helping us to resume our normal living. I have not
gone to the sea for six months. Now I will begin my employment. Your
advice gave us sufficient courage to continue living although with
sadness.”

Dearest Friends,
Greta and Jesse conducted the programs very well that the
counselors were very appreciative of the efforts put in by the two
of them. I feel that their programs was of immense benefit to us in
the "children Helping Children" program which we hope to launch in
the near future. Many counselors told me that they learned new ways
of approaching children by watching their behavior. They felt that
the methodologies used and the activities introduced were very
effective that the counselors were able to update their knowledge
with ease . They also learnt how to recognize the inner feelings of
children and adults through stories. drawings and symbols. We are
very grateful to you for making arrangements.
With love to you,
Geethani, Sarvodaya Sri Lanka |
