Gokulam underwater

The continuous rain in Sri Lanka has affected and many places are flooded. Our orphanage is also flooded. The ground floor of all the building at Gokulam is flooded and there have been extensive damage. The pantry cupboards in the kitchen has been damaged. The huge wooden cupboards in the library, school table and chairs, in the ground floor could not be moved up and therefore is still under water. The drainage system is overflowing. This is the first time our orphanage has got flooded and we expected the water to flow out quickly but the continuous rain still stagnates the water and still the place is flooded.

There are 105 children altogether of which all the 42 boys have been shifted to the ISKCON Temple premises. The girls have been moved to the 2nd and 3rd floor of their dormitories and are remaining there for more than 6 days. It looks it will take another week for everything to come back to normal if the rain stops. After the water drains out only, we will be able to assess the damage caused. It may be thousands of dollars. We also have to make some structural changes to prevent this type of flooding in the future.

For all this, we request well-wishers like you to contribute generously and make the lives of these orphan children more comfortable. They have undergone so much of trauma in the past such as war and the tsunami, and at present at Gokulam also they are undergoing difficulties due to flood.
