Who We are
Oasis Communities International creates opportunities for at-risk children and youth to become heroes in their generation. We help communities thrive while building and supporting Kingdom leaders to flourish in their calling.
Since 2001, Oasis Communities International has been sponsoring and supporting projects in Sri Lanka.
Why Srilanka
Sri Lanka is a nation rich in beauty, heritage, culture, and hospitality. Yet, it is heartbreaking to acknowledge that its most valuable treasure—its children—are often the most affected by tragedy.
Did You Know?
- Sri Lanka has a population of over 22 million, of which only 2.3% are Christian. There are approximately five million children in the country.
- Thousands of children have been—and continue to be—orphaned due to the Civil War, natural disasters (including the tsunami), and family breakdowns. During the Civil War, more than 1,000 children were used as soldiers.
- In Colombo alone, there are around 2,000 street-living and street-working children, with an additional 5,000 at risk. Outside Colombo, there are approximately 2,500 street-connected children, with another 5,000 at risk.
- There are an estimated 40,000 child prostitutes in Sri Lanka, more than half of whom are boys.
- Over 1.1 million children under the age of five live in Sri Lanka, and approximately 392,000 (35%) are undernourished, meaning they do not receive sufficient daily nutrition.
- More than 250,000 children in Sri Lanka are not attending school.
- There are over 6,000 unreached villages across the nation. Even in areas where the Gospel has been shared, many individuals have not been personally reached.
- It is estimated that 98% of Sri Lanka remains unreached.
Who has a heart for them? Who will hear their cry?
