Dear Ladies + Gentlemen,
Being a tsunami victimised person I was in an indecisive state of mind. I had no clear
idea how to start my life and how to maintain my family. During this time I got a call
from Madam Amanda Hughes Monerawela and she consoled my mind and encouraged me to get ready
to start the normal life and promised to give me a fishing boat. Really she was a drop
of deliverance in the ocean of suffering of mine. Madam Amanda Hughes Monerawela also
explained me that this donation is made by the subscription of Irish Sri Lanka Trust Fund.
So I wish to pay my homage to all the relevant people and the
entire nation of Ireland. Please accept my heartiest gratitude
and wish you the success and security wherever you go in the
years to come.
Thanking you all.
