Free lunch for children at five Kamburupitiya schools

3rd August  2022

The Srilankan schools that were closed for two weeks due to fuel and other shortages have reopened on the 25th July 2022 and  UKFG has resumed their  Free Lunch For Children programme .   The situation in Srilanka is still critical. Prices  of essential food have gone up by 300% aince April and the fuel shortage has brought many services to halt.   Out of 170,0000 low income families 900,000  could afford only one meal a day now . Most of the children come to school with no dinner and  breakfast. Naturally , starving children could not concentrate on the lessons

Realising this tragedy, this week we have expanded our programme to cover  fed 1500 children in five  schools at Kamburupitya. They are Mapalana, Godawa, Sapugoda, Thumbe and Gathara schools

We are very grateful to our friends in UK, Mr  Neil & Mrs Helen  Carson, Mr Michael , Mr Alan & Mrs Della  Keen, Mr Alan Huchison , Mr Tom Blackwell ,  Dr Uditha & Mrs Kumari Bopitiya, Mrs Nicky Pharaoh, Mr Mark Miller, Mr Ananda Wijesingha and Mrs Sujani Wijethunga in Canada  and Johnson Matthey Limited in London who have generously donated funds for this humanitarian project.  The cost of feeding  300 children in a school is around Rupees 35000 (about £80 ) . £1000  ( Rs 420,000) would feed 1800  children for a week.

If you too would kindly like to save a group of  school children  from starvation, please get in touch with us via this website or email devsiri@hotmail.com. Also please forward to this mail to any philanthropist friend of yours

Thank you
