Last month, our company was proud to extend our support to the Christopher "Maithri" (Compassion) Therapy Centre for people with special needs, located in Colombo 15. This registered charity assisted approximately 40 families living below the poverty line, each with differently abled children of varying ages.
Recently, these families, primarily consisting of daily wage workers, faced immense hardships due to adverse weather conditions. The lack of work led to hunger and a myriad of other difficulties, compounding their everyday struggles. Recognizing their plight, we reached out to provide dry rations to 35 of these families and spent quality time with the special needs children. Their smiles, filled with pure joy, had the power to brighten the darkest of nights.
Our initiative aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #10: Reduced Inequalities. This goal aims to reduce inequality within and among countries by empowering and promoting the social, economic, and political inclusion of all, regardless of age, sex, disability, race, ethnicity, origin, religion, or economic status.
Through our support, we strived to contribute to a more inclusive and equitable society. This partnership was a testament to our commitment to making a tangible difference in the lives of those in need. We invite you to continue joining us in such meaningful efforts. Together, we can create a world where compassion and equality are not just ideals, but realities. Let's reach out our hands and hearts to those in need and make a lasting impact.
