Tsunami Rehabilitation Projects

On December 26 of 2004, the people of Sri Lanka fell victim to one of the deadliest natural disasters in modern history. The Asian Tsunami took the lives of approximately 35,000 people. The enormity of this tragedy generated an outpouring of aid from the international community. The members of LAcNet were proud to do their part in collecting Tsunami donations and distributing them to worthy causes. We collected $129,200 and have have disbursed $94,371 to seven worthy projects that range from building homes for Tsunami victims to funding the educations of Tsunami orphans (the Sudheera Daruwo project).
