Small gift, real relief…

Dear friends of Earthlinks
We are writing with something simple, human, and very close to home.

A local family in Dodanduwa (by the lagoon) has just gone through a serious accident: during a small but necessary renovation, the structure failed and their entire roof collapsed. Thankfully, nobody was injured - but their little space is now exposed and unsafe until a new roof and supporting frame are rebuilt.

This is a hardworking family. The father fishes on the lagoon to provide for the household, and the mother is raising their two young children. They don’t have the resources to cover an emergency rebuild on their own, so we’re stepping in as a community.

We already covered the flooring materials. Now the urgent priority is the roof and the structural frame.

Our pledge: we will match donations 1:1

To make every contribution go further, Earthlinks will match (double) the total amount raised - so your support has 2× impact.

What your donation will fund

  • Structural timber and framing

  • Roofing materials (sheets/tiles) + waterproofing

  • Fixings, transport, and skilled labour

  • Basic safety and stabilisation work

After donating, you’re welcome to send us a message with your name so we can thank you properly.

Updates & transparency

We’ll share progress photos and updates as the rebuild moves forward, so you can see exactly what your support helped create.

Thank you for helping us turn a tough moment into something solid: safety, dignity, and a roof over a family’s head & workspace.

Jack & Sandra, Earthlinks
