The Organization for Family Services, having recognise the difficulties of unsheltered children and the difficulties of gardians who help them, have launched a donation campaign as a mean of helping them, we donate wheel chaires for permenently disable people. The requirement to obtain a wheelchair is a Reputed doctor's recomondation and a Certificate of gramaseva niladari to certify his/her permenent residential address, plus a copy of the National Identity Card.

As another means of poverty Alleviation we have started donating foot bikes for poor people and school children. This project commenced recently and we hope to expand it through proper funding.

OFFS-SL conducts various Poverty Alleviation Programs with the help of our kind hearted sponsors and numourous donatees.

We believe that we have walked only few steps in serving people and we hope to go many miles more to serve the needy people of our society.

As a means of poverty alleviation we have decided to start on language training, early childhood education support and programs to strengthen spiritual life with the intention of upgrading the condition of life towards a happy family.

We also spend a considerable amount of time in conducting seminars and workshops.

These seminars/workshops mainly focus on the following points...

• Homelessness: Causes, Types and Facts
• Homeless mothers experience
• The biggest reason for homelessness
• What to do when a parent can no longer live alone?
• How to prevent elderly parents being unsheltered?
