On Saturday the 1st of January and Sunday the 2nd of January we got into groups and went to three temples in Berwick, Keysborough and Dandenong to collect funds for tsunami victims in Sri Lanka. We had a meeting and started by taking pan-sil and planned the execution of the collections at the three temples. We then discussed how we could help 'Friends of Lanka', as well as SCATS youth with their fund raising activities. About 50 people in all attended including parents and guests from 'Friends of Lanka' and SCATS youth. We raised a total of $4621.45 (Rs. 369,716) in the two days. A outstanding effort by all the youths.
