Proceeds Information
We have a list of 10 groups doing progressive and/or social
justice relief work in Sri Lanka who we fully encourage folks
donating to. Information for all of these groups will be available
during the benefit. The following are groups we have
prioritized: grassroots, community-based groups, and activists in
sri lanka. many of the groups are in severely affected areas
where there is less infrastructure and relief is slow to reach.
• Initiative Sunrise Lanka (ISL for Ampara, Eastern Province) --
a people-centered initiative in one of the worst hit and long
impoverished villages in Sri Lanka made up of Tamil, Muslim,
and Singhala communities, Panama(paaa-ner-mer).
• The Women's Fund for Tsunami Relief and Reconstruction, Sri
Lanka
• Equal Ground -- an organization doing relief work that is
also committed to equitable status for all sexual orientations and
gender identities.
• Jeeva Jothi in Batticaloa -- the only secular orphanage in
Tamil speaking areas; older girls help run the orphanage.
• The Suriya Women's Development Center in Batticaloa -- in
addition to general relief, this organization also takes action
on issues such as women's vulnerability to sexual abuse in refugee
camps; works with Tamil, Muslim, and Singhala communitites.
This event is co-sponsored by Artists in Solidarity with Tsunami Victims
of Sri Lanka, Audre Lourde Project(ALP), Diaspora Flow, Desi's Rising
