Grace Girls' Home is an orphanage in Sri Lanka, providing shelter, food, education and access to medical treatment for girls age 5-18. Poverty, war and natural disasters are immense challenges to overcome. Our girls have suffered the loss of immediate family and limited opportunities to attend school or learn skills. Grace Girls' Home not only provides food, safe drinking water, clothing, academic support, vocational training, medical support and the basic necessities needed to survive and thrive, but also empowers girls and provides them with an opportunity to break the cycle of poverty. Best of all, they're able to rebuild a sense of hope, home and family that was torn from them at such an early age. \\Grace Girls' Home is managed by VeAhavta, a 501(c)(3) charity registered with the IRS. Our mission is to nurture the physical, emotional and spiritual well-being of orphans and destitute elders in a secure home; to provide hope for unemployed young adults through vocational training; and to provide nourishment and education to refugee children; all without regard to the race, ethnicity, religion, or social circumstance of those in need; and to establish a center where peoples who have been divided for centuries can meet in peace; and to do these things in a way that promotes understanding between peoples of different cultures and religions so they can COEXIST in mutual respect.
