22nd July 2009

Sri Lankan community leaders in France have formed a new association called Suriya Udawa to mobilize funds for child development projects in the north and east. The new association will launch its first project later this year to help rebuilding of school buildings in Vavuniya, Mannar, Kilinochchi and Mullaithivu districts.

‘Suriya Udawa’ will implement several projects on child rehabilitation, education, child health and social upliftment of children within the next three years.

Stating this, President of Suriya Udawa, Saman Mannapperuma said that several leading Sri Lankans abroad including Mr Collette Senanayake of United States and Mr Edward Perera of Germany would raise funds from individual philanthropists and organizations in Europe and United States to assist Suria Udawa projects in Sri Lanka.
