About

We believe that rice will be the catalyst that will trigger off the restoration of the houses of the victims of the Tsunami along the Eastern coastal areas such as Batticaloa and Trincomalee.

Rice is one of the staple of the Sri Lankan. As we distribute rice along the eastern coast, we hope that the stomach of the victims of the Tsunami will be momentarily filled. This is just a small step towards rebuilding their lives.

Hence, we embark on The Rice Project to discover and document Sri Lanka. A team of 10 will embark on a photographic journey to discover Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka is well known for its beautiful beaches, lush green hills and abundant wildlife such as the leopards, elephants and deers. The Yala National has one of the largest number of leopards in the world. Amidst the natural beauty,broken houses and shipwrecks stand as monuments reminding everyone of the great impact of the Tsunami which is beyond man’s control.

We aim to bring back photos of the real situations and garner support through a major photographic exhibition. A picture speaks a thousand words. We believe that people need to see and witness the lives of other fellow human beings in need. All the photos during the exhibition is up for sale. A major portion of the proceeds will go towards the restoration of the houses affected by the Tsunami. Our working partner will be Habitat for Humanity in Sri Lanka as they are really passionate and proficient in the restoration of houses for the victims of the Tsunami.
