MAGE was a voluntary non profit making organisation
established in January 2005 following a request for help from doctors in Galle, Sri Lanka where there was extensive damage to buildings with a death toll of over 4000, following the tsunami.

|
|
Our plan was to “Improve Health, Welfare and Education in
Galle, Sri Lanka and its environs in south east Asia”.
Our aim was to work with and through
local people, to respond to their needs arising from the Tsunami, and to provide lasting, practical and effective support.

The only major maternity hospital for the whole
of southern Sri Lanka was in Galle and was completely destroyed by the tsunami in December 2004. (click here to see the damage to this hospital)
The doctors in Galle asked us for help and MAGE
was formed as a response to this request with the intention of helping the medical and teaching establishment in Galle to get back on it’s feet....
