In 2019, RYTHM Foundation embarked on a Sustainable Community Project (SCP) in Sri Lanka to rebuild the lives of 500 low-income families affected by the Sri Lankan Civil War. The collaboration between RYTHM, LEADS Sri Lanka, and Habitat for Humanity primarily involves providing much-needed jobs and helping survivors restore their lives through an eco-friendly brick factory. The facility is located in the Mullaitivu district, where more than 70% of villagers live in poverty. The article in the online version of Sri Lanka’s The Island newspaper details the collaboration and how it has contributed to the gradual improvement of innumerable lives.
