At the heart of Sri Lanka’s New Life Children’s Club, two stories remind us why this work matters and how your support is making a difference.

Sandali, a bright and compassionate 16-year-old, brings joy to the club through her gift for dance. With her calm spirit and warm smile, she creates a space where children feel safe, seen, and loved. More than just teaching routines, Sandali uses dance to tell stories, lift spirits, and connect with the children in a meaningful way. She truly believes in the power of art to transform, and she brings that belief to life each day at the club.

Then there's Githum, who was just nine years old when he first arrived. He was shy and hesitant to join in. But with the gentle encouragement of mentors and volunteers like Sandali, he began to open up. Over time, he found his voice, started asking questions, and began participating more. His confidence grew, and so did his interest in learning and connecting with others.

Thanks to your generosity, children like Sandali and Githum are discovering their strengths and building brighter futures. The New Life Children’s Club is more than just a place to go after school. It's a safe, nurturing environment where kids are encouraged to grow, explore, and thrive. Your support makes all of this possible. Thank you for helping smiles bloom and dreams take flight.
