VIRU DARU DIRIYA FUND
The above fund has been established to assist the Seva Vanitha Unit
of the Sri Lankan Army to establish a special school that would provide
necessary facilities and support to children who need special care. This will
enable them to lead independent lives in the future. These are children who have
been born intellectually or physically handicapped to families of personnel in
the Armed Forces. Medical authorities have attributed most of these conditions
to the enormous emotional stress the pregnant mothers had undergone during the
pregnancy period.
(please
read the letter from Mrs Anoma Fonseka, President of Seva Vanitha Unit, Army
Branch)
These are
families of soldiers who have laid down their lives or have suffered permanent
physical disabilities in active defence of our motherland. They have bravely
gone forth to the front to fight the terrorists instead of taking up safe desk
jobs. These brave men have faced bullets, mines and other dangers that were
hurled at them and have defended the country and our beloved and dear relatives
whom we have left behind.
In gratitude for
this selfless sacrifice by these families, please assist to raise $1,000,000.00
for the Seva Vanitha unit of the Sri Lankan army through the Viru Daru Diriya
Fund project.
