Handcrafted Bags By Shakthi Shakti, an initiative by the SHA Foundation established in 2014, stands as a non-profit organization committed to providing income-generating opportunities for underprivileged women and girls in Sri Lanka. The heart of Shakti lies in its workshops, where individuals are equipped with the skills of hand and machine sewing, producing limited-edition handcrafted bags, pouches, and accessories.

“APPRECIATION OF ARTICLES” – by Des Kelly We, at e’Lanka, now receive very many different articles, whose Authors hope that they will be included in our Newsletters which come out on line, each Wednesday and Sunday respectively. While we do try our utmost, to ‘edit’ every single one of the ‘posts’ sent,  the odd one escapes our hurried scrutiny sometimes, and ends up being published. IF any such article causes concern, we do apologise, but we are human, and in humanity, mistakes do occur at times. On the other hand, there are just a few ‘special’ Contributors whose articles appear regularly on e’Lanka preceded by an introduction by me, your Editor. I find myself thanking these friends such as Keith Bennett, Charles Schokman, Victor Melder, Chris Lawton, and a few others personally, for their valued additions to our great website, which now boasts close to thirty thousand avid readers every ...
