Sri Lanka Needs Your Help: Supporting Lives After Cyclone Ditwah

Sri Lanka is facing one of the darkest moments in its recent history.
Cyclone Ditwah has devastated the entire country — all 25 districts — causing massive flooding, deadly landslides, and destroying thousands of homes and livelihoods.

Cyclone Ditwah has taken a heartbreaking toll on the people of Sri Lanka:

• 665+ lives lost

• Hundreds still missing

• Over 1 million affected

• Thousands of families displaced

• Homes washed away

• Schools, hospitals, and community centers severely damaged

• Roads, bridges, and railways destroyed

This tragedy comes during a time when Sri Lanka is still fighting to rise from:

• A historic financial crisis

• High inflation and cost of living

• Political instability

• Shortages of essentials

Families who were already struggling to survive now have lost everything — loved ones, homes, income, safety, and hope.

For many, survival right now depends on the kindness of others.
