In Galle, hundreds of lives were lost at a bus depot when the tsunami struck. 10 houses are being built there on land purchased by the Fund and these will be ready by end of June/early July.

When Mrs. Amara Senaratna, a committee member of the Irish Sri Lanka Trust Fund, visited Galle, she brought on board a project which the Trust Fund is financing. This project is a Carpentry & Technical School which is located in the Galle District, which is under construction at present.

On October 10th The Carpentry and Technical School was offically opened.
