Palm Roots 2013 is a silent auction organized to raise funds for Durgapuram Mahalir Illam in Jaffna. Durgapuram Mahalir Illam (Home for Girls) is doing a tremendous job in raising young women amidst the gender gap, child labour and child trafficking issues that exists in many countries. I felt that managing an orphanage of this sort deserves more recognition and support. Being a photographer, I have always had the drive to combine my creative work with charity and couldn’t have asked for a more perfect opportunity to initiate this project.
All proceeds of this auction will be donated directly to Durgapuram Mahalir Illam (Home for Girls) in Tellipalai (Jaffna) via a reliable medium which will be explained in further detail at the event. A donation box will be available for those who aren’t interested in bidding. Online transaction services will be available; cash & cheques accepted as well. RSVP on facebook or by emailing palmrootsinfo@gmail.com.
