SLVP - Sri Lanka Volunteer and Travel Program
The primary goal of this project is to play a responsible and beneficial role in developing Sri Lankan communities where extra help and care are needed in the fields of education, health care, social empowerment, and environmental and wildlife conservation. By harnessing the energy and ideas of international volunteers, as well as those from Sri Lanka, we hope to achieve our goal, and many others too.
Our experience tells us that the volunteers who contribute to this endeavor will undergo a life changing experience in Sri Lanka, seeing at first hand the rich, varied culture and traditions of this beautiful country, and achieving a deep understanding of Sri Lankan society and its way of life.
What exactly does SLVP strive to do?
We work with a number of local organisations, schools and orphanages in Sri Lanka and help these organisations by coordinating the support of foreign and local volunteers to develop human resources and enhance the infrastructure of those places in need. In order to provide financial aid, material aid and volunteers, we actively search for sponsors, regular donations and individuals interested in participating in our volunteering projects.
