[one_third]
Founded in 2002, Jaffna Muslim Association is a non-profit charity organisation created to help the people who were displaced from the town of Jaffna in Sri Lanka in 1990.
Due to the war most Muslims settled in refugee camps in Puttalam or escaped to other areas in Sri Lanka to avoid persecution. Essentially, due to the strict rules imposed upon Muslims on exiting Jaffna, conditions in the refugee camp were destitute and still are destitute as many Muslims (although almost 23 years have passed) still remain suffering in the camp. In total, approximately 72,000 people were forcibly evicted from the Northern Province (about 20,000 people from Jaffna).
Jaffna Muslim Association focuses on providing help to this community in Sri Lanka- we have provided financial help for widows, education for children, medical help (funding operations, treatment etc.) for those who need it, built buildings necessary to the community (i.e.: Masjids, graveyards etc.) – we have also had an emergency appeal for the victims of the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami by collecting money for those affected.
