My dear Facebook, Instagram, TikTok friends & family — as many of you know, I almost never get involved in promoting or endorsing charities because you never truly know who benefits from them.
But this time, it’s personal.
The small island nation of Sri Lanka, where I was born, has just been hit by a devastating hurricane. Massive floods and landslides have left the country in crisis, and people are in desperate need of help.
The image I’ve shared contains verified information to donate directly to the U.S.–Sri Lankan government, ensuring the support goes straight to where it’s needed most.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for any kindness, generosity, or prayers you can offer.
Love,
Ron
The recent hurricane that struck Sri Lanka has caused catastrophic flooding and landslides, leaving many families displaced and communities devastated. In times like this, contributing to relief efforts can make a real difference in the recovery process. Verified accounts have been established to allow Sri Lankans overseas, foreign nationals, and local donors to provide direct assistance securely and transparently. For those living abroad and wishing to contribute in USD, funds can be sent to the Central Bank of Sri Lanka’s account designated for foreign receipts. This account ensures that donations go directly to governmental relief initiatives, maximizing the impact of every dollar. Contributors should use the account number 021083514 and the swift code CBCELKLX, with the remarks stating "Credit to DST's Dollar Dola." Donations in other foreign currencies or the Sri Lankan Rupee (LKR) can be made using an alternative account under the Deputy Secretary to the Treasury with the Central Bank of Sri Lanka, account number 50516, swift code CBCELKLXXXX. For local donors in Sri Lanka, the Bank of Ceylon is accepting contributions into account number 2026450 under the Deputy Secretary to the Treasury. By utilizing these verified bank details, donors can be confident their contributions support relief and recovery directly, bypassing intermediaries that may dilute the assistance. The scope of the disaster is immense, involving damaged infrastructure, loss of homes, and ongoing risk from saturated landscapes. Recovery efforts require funds for emergency shelter, food supplies, medical assistance, and rebuilding vital community services. Your support—whether financial or through sharing verified information—helps raise awareness and mobilizes vital resources for Sri Lanka’s rebuilding. Every donation counts toward restoring hope and stability to those affected by this tragic natural disaster.
