The Divisional Secretariat areas of Trincomalee District include several villages living under deplorable conditions, where families struggle to meet basic needs such as food due to poverty, unemployment, rising commodity prices caused by fuel price increases, lockdowns, and continuous transport restrictions. Many households depend entirely on guardians or parents who are daily wage earners and are now unable to work, while families caring for members with severe cerebral palsy face extreme vulnerability and require special assistance. During the third wave of COVID-19, Trincomalee became one of the most affected districts after Colombo and Gampaha, with widespread infections reported not only in town and gravets areas but also across multiple Divisional Secretariats, leading to curfews, isolation, and worsening conditions for children, the elderly, pregnant and lactating mothers. Daily wage workers, rural poor, migrant workers, and seasonal laborers have lost all income opportunities, forcing many to return to villages without work or support. In response, HOPE requests emergency relief assistance to support 100 of the most vulnerable families—particularly women-headed households and primary breadwinners—through the distribution of 200 food packs in the T and G Divisional Secretariat areas, in coordination with the Trincomalee District Secretariat/GA Office and in compliance with COVID-19 safety guidelines. The intervention includes identifying and approving beneficiary lists, procuring and packing food items with government approval, and distributing them at designated locations. As a government-approved local NGO, HOPE will coordinate closely with district authorities, manage procurement, ensure visibility, conduct distributions, and submit reports, while monitoring will be carried out jointly by HOPE and government officials, with progress reviewed through financial, narrative, and photographic reporting in line with official guidelines.
