What we do
We support young people as they leave orphanages in Sri Lanka and take their first steps in the outside world. Regardless of gender, race, religion or disability our aim is simple: to bridge the opportunity gap faced by so many care leavers. No one should be disadvantaged by growing up in an orphanage.
Providing young care leavers with safe and secure accommodation.
Offering a brighter future through learning, experience and wisdom.


Small grants can lead to enormous change. With your help we can make a huge difference to the lives of a very vulnerable group of people.
