Good Works Project to Raise Livelihood Seed Money for Sri Lanka
A Good Works project has been launched to raise funds to help members in Sri Lanka. Some of the members there are having great difficulty maintaining jobs due to conflicts with the Sabbath. The local economy has taken a beating due to the continuing civil war, and unemployment is high.
We would like to use $2,500 of Good Works Program funds as seed money to help some of our members there start up small businesses so they can provide for their needs and the needs of their families. For more details on the Good Works Program, see www.ucg.org/goodworks.
