"Friends of HELP" started - all supporters are welcome to join in

We are a small group of sympathisers of HELP-Sri Lanka, and on 23 January this year we started "Friends of HELP-Sri Lanka", a non-profit charity promoting the social, educational and environmental work of the Sri Lankan organization HELP. "Friends of HELP" is now registered as a legal entity in Norwegian 'Enhetsregisteret' and as a non-profit organization in Norwegian 'Frivillighetsregisteret'. We are obliged to send our annual accounts to the Register of Company Accounts every year.
The work of the association is mainly:
- to actively spread information about and support the activities of HELP
- to support running of HELP’s Sathkara school, a non-formal after-school programme with arts and cultural activities
- to promote visits, volunteering and exchange programmes that aid the purposes of the charity.
 
The association shall have a membership. Any person or legal person (organization, business) that supports the work of the charity, can register to become a member.
 
The following persons are the first members of the charity and will serve as trustees (temporary board) until the first general assembly, which must be held within one year of 23 January 2016: Therese Delebekk Kristiansen and Hansa C. K. Gamage (Lørenskog), Maria Isabelle Mikalsen (Fredrikstad) Lasse Delebekk (Borgenhaugen) and Asbjørn Tufto (Lillehammer).
