About 'Rana Viru Sevana' in Ragama, Sri Lanka (Brief intro):
A dedicated facility to look after the rehabilitation of soldiers. 3 wards with over 100 disabled soldiers who are looked after on a daily basis. They enjoy meeting the public that like to have a chat with them and also give a smile with an entertainment act. A small act from public can go a long way to bring happiness to these brave souls who had given their all to the well being of our country.
What is needed from public:
We are yet to fully finalise the items to be bought but they have tentatively mentioned about the need to get 'Motivation wheel chairs' which cost close to Rs 30,000 each. They need 35 such. We are looking at providing them with 20 such and therefore this time we are looking at collecting Rs 600,000 to fulfill this target.
We will use the cash donations we collect and then buy these items. If you are able to donate, please see the below bank details:
Bank: Sampath Bank
Branch: Colombo Super
Name: M.D. Senarath-Yapa or W.G.T.Fernando
Account Number : 1175-5482-2773
In addition to the item donations, it is possible to allocate time to give them a few entertainment acts (few songs, dances, magic acts etc...) to put a smile on their faces. Time will also be available in the visit to personally talk to them and hear their stories from the war that we have only heard or read in papers.
