Premalatha shares her story in our Winter Story, Sometimes we Starve.

She grew up in rural Sri Lanka but at 18 began sewing clothes in one of the country’s export processing zones. At the Women’s Centre, Premalatha has found friendship and support. She is working with other women workers to improve their pay and working conditions.

The last few years have been challenging, but now Sri Lanka is experiencing its worst economic crisis. Prices are skyrocketing and the country is rationing fuel. Sri Lankans are facing severe shortages and more frequent hunger. Please remember them in your prayers.

Read the Winter Story for her firsthand account. Please support our Winter Appeal so workers earn enough to support their families.
