Nena Saviya 7

We would like to place on record that the past year 2023 has been remarkable for ENOCH LANKA.

In the meeting of the Board of Directors held at the beginning of the year, it was unanimously decided that school books and other materials should be provided to at least 200 children in the year 2023.

According to the preliminary estimate for this project at least Rs. 1,000,000/- (One million) had to be collected.

Initially we launched a tills project among the known people and a sum of Rs.148,312/- could be collected.

Next, we opened our invitation to local and overseas friends and relations to seek their financial support and we were able to collect the balance required.

As a result, the project was successful as planned.

 Accordingly, the distribution of books to the children of 48 schools in the three districts of Colombo, Kalutara and Nuwara Eliya was held on 26 January 2024 in a grand manner at St. Sebastian's Cathedral Hall, Moratuwa.

The participation of Buddhist, Christian, Muslim and Hindu religious priests was prominent here.

The selected school children are studying from year 3 to year 13 as follows.

Further they are Sinhala, Muslim and Tamil without any discrimination.

Total cost of the project was Rs.843,391.50
