"Build a community centre in 5 days? – Daunting!" was the first reaction of many of the 48 international students from the New York University of Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) who landed in Sri Lanka on the 22^nd of March, 2013. Daunting, it seemed at first, but not impossible, as it was proved.

On the 4^th February, 2013, when Sri Lanka celebrated its Independence day, Leo Club and Lions Club of Negombo partnered with HFHSL and held a very much needed Medical Camp for the home-owners at Pathayamwatte village, Negombo (Rebuild Sri Lanka Site).
