The projects are run by recognised organisations in Sri Lanka and the ETA contributes part of the cost of the projects. Request for assistance are received from humanitarian assistance Organisations working in the North and East of Sri Lanka, Such requests are discussed in detail at the Committee of the Association and suitable projects are selected based of the current of the area and the availability of funding. If the Association feels any project is important, the Association conducts special funding appeals to the community.
