Unfortunately, we are not able to continue to visit the orphanage: Children's Street Centre, as the leader of the orphanage explained to us how she was concerned with the sensitivity of our focus/objective and getting the children involved or exposed to such subjects, although we didn't plan to.
This is quite unfortunate, but as group we understand the situation (considering of ethical actions). We therefore need to find other orphanages who are willing and able to permit us to visit their orphanages to carry out planned and initiated activities with the children, as we feel this is a huge part of our group as a service project, thus this is on our priority list at the moment (showing perseverance and commitment in our activities).
Simultaneously we hope to start working on our first newsletter and safety guides that we are going to send out to the contacts we collected from our visits to the Good Market, Crescat, etc. and we hope to visit another site to expand our contacts (to increase more awareness). Hopefully this way we can increase more awareness on the subject within Sri Lanka, and cause more people to take action.
