Lest we forget the truly amazing stories, I encourage you to please post your own here. Or email me here. I have 2 today:
A health club in California RoughFit is planning to collect money for the four families affected along the southwest coast of Sri Lanka.
A Fulbright scholar Jeremy Gantz (from Cape Cod, Mass.) who had been in Sri lanka, is reportedly involved in relief work.
For the past three months he had been studying the history of Sri Lankan education and its connection to colonial and post-colonial political and economic developments! He had been on holiday in Thailand when the tsunami struck and he says “I felt fairly hedonistic on holiday in Thailand after learning of the tsunami… so flew back to Sri Lanka to help with the relief effort; my research feels very unimportant now”.
This was reported on the Relief For Sri Lanka blog, maintained by the Colombo Rotary Club.
