LOLC Divi Saviya’s 200 school renovations
View(s):LOLC Divi Saviya has successfully concluded the first phase of ‘Obai, Mamai, Ape Ratai,’ making a significant impact on Sri Lanka’s ongoing recovery from the devastating Cyclone Ditwah by distributing family super packs across six districts, covering 69 divisional secretariats. Building on the momentum of phase one, LOLC Divi Saviya immediately advanced to its second phase on January 5, officially commencing a nationwide school renovation drive under the same initiative ‘Obai, Mamai, Ape Ratai’. This phase focuses on restoring 200 schools damaged by the cyclone, ensuring that education can continue uninterrupted, the company said in a media release.
With a total investment of over Rs. 400 million, the initiative encompasses the family super pack distribution, school renovations in phase two, and the complete rebuilding of selected schools which will be carried out in phase three. Working closely under the guidance and supervision of relevant government authorities, the project team has carefully identified the most severely affected families and schools, including several that were completely destroyed. All assessments have been thoroughly verified by official bodies, ensuring that support is extended responsibly, transparently, and to those who need it most.
The launch of phase two was recently symbolically inaugurated at Kolombissa Vidyalaya, Kandy, marking the transition from emergency relief to structured recovery n the presence of Kithsiri Gunawardena, Chief Operations Officer of LOLC Holdings PLC; Nihal Alahakoon, Provincial Director of Education; Indika Udawatte, District Secretary, District Secretariat, Kandy; and Ms. Madupani Piyasena, Provincial Education Secretary Central Province, Ministry of Education.
Commenting at the launch of phase two, Mr. Gunawardena stated, “In times of crisis, recovery must go beyond immediate relief and focus on restoring stability, dignity, and opportunity. It is our observation that during such devastation children belonging to low income groups suffer much higher levels of mental trauma and become vulnerable for long term psychological conditions. Thus, enabling the children to get back to the familiar environment of their school is of vital importance. Further, education is the most powerful foundation for rebuilding lives and strengthening the future of our nation.”
