About Us

Who we are & what we do

Stopping suicide, and attempts, which kill more Sri Lankans than car accidents

Our Mission

MessagesHelp.Org aims to reduce the huge numbers of attempted and completed suicides in Sri Lanka, killing and injuring about a plane full of healthy young adults every day. We provide medically approved phrases for you to send with one tap to anyone you know who becomes at risk. This is proven by research to be effective. No waiting. No cost.

Available 24/7 in English, Sinhala, and Tamil — because support should be accessible to everyone, anytime.
