LOLC Divi Saviya surpasses 2000 schools, and counting
LOLC Group, a true Sri Lankan multinational conglomerate renowned for its longstanding dedication to the nation spanning over four decades, has reaffirmed its commitment to corporate social responsibility through the successful achievement of a pivotal milestone in its ‘LOLC Divi Saviya’ initiative.
‘LOLC Divi Saviya’ launched in February 2023, has been a beacon of hope for the most deserving children across Sri Lanka. This ambitious project has now successfully reached out to 2000 schools as at date, transforming the educational journey of countless children.
To commemorate this momentous occasion, a special event was organized at the Punkudathivu Roman Catholic Tamil Mixed School on September 15, 2023, where the essential school supplies were distributed to the students with the presence of several well-wishers.
Ms. Sakunthala, representing the parents of Hettiyawa Primary School in Anuradhapura, spoke about the profound impact of the ‘LOLC Divi Saviya’ project. Her emotional words resonated deeply, “It is a day when hope rained down upon us, just like the much-needed rain during a drought.
When our villagers whose livelihood is agriculture were struggling with helplessness, wondering how to provide for our children’s education, LOLC emerged as our guide. I am overwhelmed with gratitude for the joy and care you have brought into our hearts.’
