Opened on August 31, 2002, the Grace Girls Home is a permanent residential facility located within the Grace Care Center compound that is able to accommodate 100 orphaned girls from ages 5-19.

At the Grace Girls Home, our children enjoy opportunities that they would never have otherwise received and they embrace those opportunities eagerly and joyfully. By attending school or participating in vocational training, each child is given the chance of having a brighter future.

Each child at the Home is financially sponsored through VeAhavta by "foster" families and individuals from around the world. Please visit our sponsorship page for more information.

Through the Grace Girls Home, VeAhavta is able to provide all of the basic material needs of the children. But as those of us who are parents know, a child’s needs are far more than just material. Children need love, especially children who have suffered the agonies and traumas of war. And so, we encourage sponsors to get involved in their child’s life – to write to their child and, if possible, to visit her.

But among the opportunities we provide to our children at the Home, perhaps the most important is the chance to form lasting friendships with each other. The bonds that the children will form during their time at the Grace Girls Home will last a lifetime. They are relationships that will help each child grow in confidence, work through the tragedies of their lives and begin to trust others once again.

VeAhavta needs your involvement to continue to provide needy children in Sri Lanka with a safe, healthy and fun place to grow up. Please donate generously to the Grace Girls Home or contact us about volunteering your time. Your investment of love will be doubled in the love you receive in return!
