Senthalir
Illam - Mullaittivu (northern-east of SL = Tamil
Eelam = Tamil Land)
Senthalir Illam, "Tender Sprout Home,"
was a children's home for over 150 orphaned
and underprivileged children, including 30 infants
attending the school's nursery.
When the tsunami hit, 113 of the students
were at the school. Most of them were killed.
Some drowned immediately, and some of the
children rescued died later from lack of adequate
medical resources, a ventilator would have
kept them alive.

Senthalir
Illam - Tender Sprout - children's home
Senthalir Illam in Mullaithivu is a home
for destitute children who have been severely
affected by the war. The children cared
for in Senthalir Illam, in addition to
losing their relatives and having been
displaced several times, have also suffered
malnutrition, lack of security, interrupted
education and economic deprivation. The
CWDR currently looks after 115 children
whose ages range from nine months to 17
years. The CWDR believes these children
deserve a nurturing environment where
their physical, mental and social well-being
can flourish, and where they can envision
a future for themselves as responsible
members of society.
