"Friends of Sri Lanka" Help Tamil Schoolchildren in the East
www.defence.lk">While the terror stooges in the Tamil Diaspora spend billions of dollars to breathe life to the terrorism that destroyed generations of Sri Lankan Tamils for their own advantage, a group of Sri Lankans living in the USA has come forward to lend helping hands to the children in the war affected areas to rebuild their lives.
The group, "Friends of Sri Lanka" has donated school equipment worth of over Rs. 650,000 to 200 schoolchildren in the recently resettled areas in Trincomalee.
Accordingly, the school children in war-torn Sampoor and Nilaweli were gifted with school bags, shoes, exercise books, boxes of Geometry Instruments, paint and colour pencil boxes, each amounting to Rs. 3200 at a function held in Sampoor recently.
The Sri Lanka Navy facilitated the representatives of the "Friends of Sri Lanka" for their move towards this noble charity.
Speaking to defence.lk a representative from the "Friends of Sri Lanka" said "100% of the donations trickled down to the sole purpose of the project, with zero administrative costs. The Children, Teachers and the Parents of both schools were full of praise of "Friends of Sri Lanka" for organizing such an event."
Moreover, "we are expecting to donate two Desktop computers to the Sampoor School within the next 30 days," he added.
Commander Eastern Naval Area Rear Admiral Jayanath Colombage, Directors of Education, Principals and parents of the children were also present at the occasion.
