After she built a house with Habitat, her daughter who were also evacuated to the Southern India came back to live with her. On the other hand, Auliyapichai from Vaddakandal moved into a Habitat house from emergency shelter. The family made kitchen and storage reusing the materials from the emergency shelter, making the new house even better for the family. Old Rahubatcha also from Vaddakandal was struggling with the headache and fatigue from extreme heat in the inadequate house. The new house provides safety and sanitation, but also saving them money while they are now so healthy they don't have to go to hospital as often. Also, the government recognized the communities where people are starting decent lives and they run the power lines.<br \/>\n\u3000\u3000<br \/>\nThese are only a few examples of transformations happening and we expect more are coming. Habitat Sri Lanka will continue monitoring and supporting these families from here on. \u3000\u3000<br \/>\n\u3000<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.habitatjp.org\/jpblog\/assets_c\/2012\/10\/srilankanorth2320121008%281%29-4159.html\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/www.habitatjp.org\/jpblog\/assets_c\/2012\/10\/srilankanorth2320121008%281%29-4159.html','popup','width=800,height=600,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0');
