TRIP Legacy Stories

A Legacy of Help and Hope

Since the 2004 tsunami, our donors and volunteers have transformed countless lives in Sri Lanka. Building homes for families lacking basic shelter, funding scholarships for university students, helping several hundred others with education skills development, and providing employment opportunities to ensure stable family incomes. TRIP Canada has made a profound impact since 2005 creating A Legacy of Help and Hope for many people.

Thanks to our generous donors and committed volunteers we’ve made a difference to so many people. Building homes for families lacking basic shelter, funding scholarships for university students, helping several hundred others with education skills development, and providing employment opportunities to ensure stable family incomes. Your help extends beyond the immediate beneficiaries and touches the lives of all family members and loved ones.

Together, we can continue to build sustainable communities that thrive for years to come.
