This heart-warming event was
conducted in 2 phases.
Phase 1 was the fund raiser where a
Charity Run and an entertainment
programme was held in Kandy, which
included exhilarating performances
of some of our celebrated Sri Lankan
artists in order to raise the required
funds for the high-priced filtration
system.
Phase 2 included the donation of the water purification
system to Galeliya Village, one of the highly impacted
villages in Aralaganwila, Polonnaruwa, where many lives
have been lost to CKDU plaguing the villagers.
Major goal of this project was to provide clean water to
rural areas as a solution to prevent being affected by
CKDU as one of the major causes of this disease was
identified as consumption of unsanitary water.
This extremely rewarding event was also considered as
a club outing as they were able to soothe the
stress-burdened minds of our club members by
delighting themselves in the picturesque and
entertaining journey from Kandy to Aralaganwila. The
ceremony organised by the villagers was a highlight of
the day and will forever remain in the memories of all
the participants.
