Ten for Tamils Incorporated

Ten for Tamils Incorporated is a nonprofit organization based in Australia, dedicated to improving the lives of Sri Lankan Tamil women and their families. The charity focuses on providing practical assistance and support, particularly in areas affected by the civil war that ended in 2009.

Background

The organization was founded by Judy Doubas, who was motivated to help after visiting Jaffna, Sri Lanka, in 2014. Doubas was moved by the plight of Tamil widows whose lands were occupied by the military and the struggles of women in internally displaced persons camps. These women often faced severe economic hardship, with little hope for change, and were frequently referred to as the "forgotten" people.

Objectives and Activities

Ten for Tamils Incorporated aims to alleviate poverty among Sri Lankan Tamils. Key activities include:

  • Food Support Programs: Distributing rations to those in need.
  • Employment Opportunities: Creating work opportunities, particularly for women, to improve their socio-economic status.
  • Scholarships for Children: Providing educational support to help children remain in school and access better educational opportunities.
  • Women's Development Programs: Supporting initiatives in Jaffna, Sri Lanka, to empower women and address their specific needs.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Ten for Tamils also initiated food distribution programs to support those affected.

Impact

By focusing on education, employment, and basic necessities like food, Ten for Tamils aims to provide sustainable solutions and hope for the future of Tamil families and communities. The organization works closely with local partners to ensure that aid reaches those most in need, prioritizing the empowerment of women and the education of children.

Registration and Operations

Ten for Tamils Incorporated is registered as a small charity, primarily assisting adults aged between 25 and 65, children between the ages of 6 and 15, females, and financially disadvantaged individuals. The organization's commitment to transparency and accountability is reflected in its fiscal operations and reporting processes.
