Sri Lanka

Overview

For a child to attend school in Sri Lanka, having basic necessities such as textbooks and shoes is essential. Without these, children are not allowed to participate in public education. Since 2022, Impacting Asia has been making a profound difference by supporting up to 400 students annually. Our initiative ensures that these young learners have the resources they need to succeed academically and pursue their dreams. Through our efforts, we are not only providing essential supplies but also fostering hope and opportunities for a brighter future for the children of Sri Lanka.

Report

We saw 400% increase in the cost of books and shoes for children going to school. Mothers testified that they did not know how to send their children to school. In the rural sectors many families consisted of four to five or more children. They told us that they did not know which child they should choose to go to school. And if they did send them to school they would not be able to eat for one week. This was just one of the stories. There were so many villages struggling to send their children to school.

The price of books was unaffordable. The price of shoes also had skyrocketed making it nearly impossible for parents to purchase books and shoes. Therefore many families decided to keep their children at home. This is the case in most places even today.

However, Impacting Asia helped us to invest in the lives of 50 children. The money came in and we prayed and thanked the Lord for the generosity of the donors who had sowed into this back to school project. As we did so, we found the money miraculously multiplied and were able to bless 415 children!
