Welcome to Little Aid

Our Journey

The Beginnings of Little Aid

It was the peak time of the civil war; tensions were running high in the diaspora community as blood was shed freely. Marches and protests were carried out in London, Toronto and Paris round the clock. Text messages and emails were being sent out every hour. During that time all wanted to contribute something to relieve the suffering of the people devastated by the war  but didn’t know what to do or whom to turn to. During that tense time Little Aid was formed as a charity in the UK by likeminded individuals – Tamils, Sinhalese and Muslims – their unity easily forged by their care for humanity transcending politics.

It was but a coincidence that the official date of the commencement of registration of the new charity was 18 May 2009, the day the civil war was officially ended.

The First Mission

Little Aid started to function in March 2009 even before it was formally registered, first supplying fresh vegetables and infant milk powder to the IDP camps in the Chettikulam area. The founder of Little Aid, Tarrin Constantine, an entrepreneur from the UK, visited the IDP camps in the Vanni in March 2009. During his visit he met the Vavuniya Government Agent Mrs Charles and some high ranking government officials and senior politicians. During this meeting he convinced the officials that his mission would be completely humanitarian, Little Aid would be very transparent and he would take full responsibility for the mission. Little Aid’s Sri Lankan representative, Dr Nimal Kariyawasam, a returnee from the UK, was the main coordinator of the projects. These links facilitated Little Aid’s undisrupted direct access to the IDP camps in Chettikulam at the peak of human suffering in the period April – July 2009. Little Aid donated thousands of textbooks and stationery to the children in the IDP camps.

During that time transporting the aid to the North was a nightmare. Lorries had to unload all their contents in Mathavatchi for checking and another vehicle had to come from the North and load the goods to take them to the North. But Little Aid managed to overcome these obstacles, because of the open and transparent nature of its mission.

Extension to Child Soldiers

After July 2009 Little Aid started to concentrate on LTTE child soldiers. During one of the visits by a diaspora team, their request for permission to engage in this line of work was made directly to Hon Basil Rajapaksa, then special advisor to the President. From that opening Little Aid organised music lessons at Ambepussa Camp where the first batch of surrendered or captured LTTE soldiers were kept.  These children were given lessons in modern and classical music and became so good that later they conducted several music programmes before appreciative audiences.
