After the Tsunami hit Sri Lanka in 2004, a group formed in Minnesota called the Minnesota Sri Lanka Friendship Foundation. They raised money to build 50 new homes for the survivors and then raised more to create a community learning center for the new village of Hikkaduwa. Architecture for Humanity MN offered their design services for the learning center that includes a library and Montessori preschool.
