Phase One: Daily Food Provision
Objective: To ensure girls in orphanages have access to nutritious daily meals.
In this phase, the “Donate for Dreams” organization has successfully secured a sponsor to
provide daily food for the girls in the orphanages- Kegalle until they become self-sustainable
with their own harvest. Through this initiative, we have been able to guarantee that the girls’
basic nutritional needs are met, thereby enhancing their physical and mental well-being.
Phase Two: Building a Sustainable Vegetable Farm (Greenhouse) with Cinnamon and Coconut
Plantation
Objective: To develop a self-sustaining model for vegetable, cinnamon, and coconut production,
involving school children and government officials.
In phase two, our focus shifts towards fostering self-reliance and sustainability. “Donate for
Dreams” aims to establish a state-of-the-art vegetable farm, utilizing a greenhouse setup to
ensure year-round cultivation. Additionally, we plan to cultivate cinnamon and coconut to
diversify the produce and enhance future opportunities for income generation.
The project will actively involve school children from nearby schools, promoting the concept of
sustainable agriculture and environmental consciousness. Through educational programs and
practical experiences, we aim to inspire the younger generation to appreciate the importance of
agriculture and its role in supporting communities.
Furthermore, we are collaborating with government officials and local authorities to ensure that
the project aligns with the region’s agricultural policies and regulations. The involvement of
government officials will help facilitate necessary permissions and promote a sustainable
partnership for the long-term success of the initiative.
Phase Three: Providing Professional Training for Post-High School Graduation
Objective: To equip girls leaving the orphanages with essential skills for obtaining gainful
employment and becoming proactive problem-solvers in society.
Upon completing high school, the girls in orphanages often face challenges transitioning to
independent lives. The third phase of our project aims to address this issue by offering
professional training programs. These programs will focus on imparting skills relevant to the
current job market, such as vocational training, soft skills development, and entrepreneurship.
By empowering the girls with practical skills, we aim to enhance their employability and enable
them to contribute positively to society. Through this phase, we envision building strong and
independent individuals with problem-solving capabilities, encouraging them to be proactive in
tackling challenges they may encounter.
