The MKADS Gunawardana Foundation was established to continue the charitable causes to which the late Mr MKADS Gunawardana dedicated his life, providing better living conditions for the families in the North & Eastern Province of Sri Lanka. The Foundation aims to provide support to the children’s education for families who are in poverty and affected by CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) in Sri Lanka, through donating school kits which includes bags, shoes, books, stationeries, bottles, disability support & projects to rebuild houses and the provision of safe drinking water.
Currently we have 260 children who are receiving schooling support and 20 A/L students who receive monthly bursaries. We have distributed nearly 30 disability equipment and rebuild houses to provide safe & clean environment for those in needs.
Reason for Crowd Fundraising
Due to COVID many are out of their daily income and in urgent need of food in Sri Lanka. We have received many request of help and being a small charity we are trying our best to support 300 families, which will cost around £3,700.
We have a team in Sri Lanka to arrange required dry food parcel and distribute to those who requested to the foundation, and provide the pictures of donations & evidence of expenditure (receipts etc..) to complete the task.
