Orphans are easier to ignore

before you know their names…

They are easier to ignore

before you see their faces…

It’s easier to pretend they’re not real

before you hold them in your arms…

but once you do,

everything changes...

Children are priceless treasures and gifts in the world. It is everyone’s conviction that the physical, psychological and spiritual needs of children should be amply and competently met. But children who live lonely in children homes with no affection of beloved family members may be lack of these needs. They also need love and affection in their lives even though we cannot give them the exact love from their own parents.  As Leos we always try to do the best for those children’s happiness and welfare. This time we were able to bring smile to the innocent little faces at Buddhist Girls’ Children’s Home, Kamil Pedesa, Nupe, Matara. 

It was 26th of November 2016. UoM Leos went to the Buddhist Girls’ Children’s Home to spend the time with those little children. Since their chances to enjoy their lives are very few, we had a small movie time with them, letting them watch a very interesting and exemplary movie that make them both happy and educated. And also we treated them with a tea party and presented them some gifts. Then we spent some time with them witnessing their hidden talents. At last we could see the success of our project by their happy faces.
