I'm off to Sri Lanka again!
December 26th, 2005 marked the 1 year anniversary of the tsumani in Asia that killed over 250,000 human beings. I honored the day by lighting candles in hopes the light and warmth shed by the candles would transfer to the spirits of the victims and their loved ones so they would know they are not forgotten (photos below). During that ceremony I decided it was time for me to return to Sri Lanka this February to build more homes for the affected families.

Visit the following pages to learn more:

• W.O.R.K. - W.O.R.K. is the organization I will be returning to Sri Lanka with. It was formed by two volunteers that I met in Sri Lanka last April. They were so inspired by the people and experience they dreamed of returning and doing more and now their dream is a reality. The goal is to build 20 homes.
• Sri Lanka Poem - Poem I wrote in thanks to all the people that donated and encouraged me last year helping me to raise almost $5000
• Donation Info - Help house and change the lives of 20 Sri Lankan families who have lost everything in the tsunami by financially sponsoring the project. As of January 7th W.O.R.K. has raised enough money to build 6 homes. I would like to help raise enough money to build all 20!
