Sri Lanka

Share:

After seven years, the Mercy Corps country program in Sri Lanka closed on January 15, 2012. Since 2005 we have implemented 22 programs worth $22 million in Sri Lanka, improving the lives of hundreds of thousands of people and leaving a strong legacy. Thank you to all the staff, partners, donors and community members who contributed to our work there. Together we helped make lasting contributions to the development of Sri Lanka and its people.
