Dear Friends,<\/em><\/p>\n

I write to you seeking your support for a humanitarian cause in Sri Lanka that occurred on April 14, 2017 with loss of life in a disaster where in addition many thousands have been rendered homeless having lost every piece of their personal possessions.\u00a0 The homes were strong permanent buildings that didn\u2019t survive the Methane gas explosions.<\/em><\/p>\n

In partnership with Arpico, I have worked with a special team and the support of the Chairman Dr. Sena Yaddehige to facilitate this project to donate care packages online via the Arpico eCommerce site.\u00a0 <\/em>There are 7 different levels of packages ranging from $15 upwards<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 to choose from and it is a secured site for payment by credit card <\/em>(https:\/\/arpicosupercentre.com\/care_packages<\/a><\/em><\/strong>.<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0 Receipts will be furnished immediately.\u00a0 Please support the people who have been rendered destitute.\u00a0 Online donations can be made as the eCommerce site has provided a page dedicated to Meethotamulla donations. <\/em><\/p>\n

Note to organizations:\u00a0 Please feel free to provide this link on your websites and disseminate information to all those who can assist.\u00a0 Your help will be greatly appreciated and this is a project that is entirely transparent with no collections.\u00a0 The packages will be delivered free of charge to legitimate victims in collaboration with a ground team.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The team of executives from Arpico worked very quickly to get this going in a very short time via Skype meetings and technology services. Working with them was a delight! \u00a0\u00a0Please visit the site and help.\u00a0 If you have any issues, please communicate with me and I will try to help or connect with the eCommerce team for resolution.\u00a0 If you wish to use this beyond the Meethotamulla donations to other deserving families, please feel free to do so by designating the recipient with specific address and contact information that has been provided for.\u00a0 Please spread the word globally where ever you may be.\u00a0 <\/em>Please follow the instructions annotated below and also attached to this email.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/em><\/p>\n
