An Unthinkable Tragedy at Ottawa (Mar 7)

Senseless deaths of six innocent victims has made us to reach out to you. Our wish is to raise $200K. The financial support for the victims’ families will be coordinated through the local Buddhist Temple (Buddhist Congress of Canada, 1481, Heron Road, Ottawa. Ontario. K1V 6A6). Your generosity will be greatly appreciated.

The Innocent Victims:
Children:
Inuka (7 years)
Ashwini (4 years)
Ranaya (3 years)
Kelly (2 ½ months)

Mother of the four children:
Dharshani Ekanayake (35 years)

Friend of the Family Gamini Amarakoon (40 years)

The only survivor Dhanushka Wickramasinghe (Maduranga) is currently being treated at the Ottawa Hospital and he is recovering. Once the autopsies are done, and bodies are released, we will be undertaking the funerals and will update the information here.

Further, you can make your donations to Buddhist Congress of Canada (BCC) towards this tragedy by way of cash, cheques made out to BCC or by e-transferring money to the temple's email with a small note that it's for this worthy cause, so that we can manually add it here.
