In January 2023 we provided school provisions and a pair of shoes to 2,000 needy students and in January 2024 we expanded the program to cover 3,210 needy students. The package of provisions included a schoolbag, exercise books, stationary and a voucher for the purchase of a pair of shoes. This project was supported by the Buddhist Global Relief of the USA, Karunaratne& Sons (Pvt) Ltd, Mutual Assistance Society of Sydney, Australia and a large number of individual donors.
