Bericht vom Jahr 2005
Durchbruch gelungen
Am 7.12.2005 wurde von den Vorständen der gemeinnützigen, mildtätigen und eingetragenen Vereine "Santhana Lama Niwasaya" in Sri Lanka und "Wir für Menschen e.V." in Deutschland der Grundlagenvertrag (Memorandum of Understanding) zeitgleich unterzeichnet (15Uhr Ortszeit Deutschland und 20Uhr Ortszeit Sri Lanka).
Hierin werden die Grundsätze einer langfristigen Zusammenarbeit mit den Schwerpunkten "Gebäudeneubau" und "Patenschaften für die Waisenkinder" manifestiert. Das Herzstück des Dokuments ist die von beiden Vereinen getragene Vision und Mission, hier im original Wortlaut wiedergegeben:

MISSION:
In the St. Anne’s Children Home we create an environment where the girls and boys can thrive, enjoy their childhood and youth and receive an education as a solid basis for their future development. It will become one of the most admired children’s homes in the country.
Mit diesem Dokument wurde der Grundstein für eine langjähirge Partnerschaft gelegt und dem Neubau steht jetzt nichts mehr im Weg. 19 von 32 Patenschaften sind schon unter Dach und Fach.
