Delivers transformative support for over 3,200 orphans across Sri Lanka

OrphanCare unveils inaugural Impact Report

ORPHANCARE recently unveiled its inaugural Impact Report, highlighting the transformative difference it has made in the lives of orphaned children across Sri Lanka.

The report sheds light on a vital yet often neglected issue: securing the future of orphans once they reach the age of 18 and are compelled to leave institutional care. With a strong focus on preventing a “second abandonment,” OrphanCare through its Impact Report reaffirms its commitment to helping these young adults stepping into adulthood with dignity, stability, and opportunity.

OrphanCare operates as an independent trust, established under the patronage of Amana Bank, its founding sponsor. The event was attended by OrphanCare’s Board of Trustees, including Chairman Ruzly Hussain, Harsha Amarasekera, PC, Sharad Amalean, K.R. Ravindra, Tyeab Akbarally, Jazri Magdon Ismail, and Amana Bank Managing Director/CEO Mohamed Azmeer. Also in attendance were the Board of Directors of Amana Bank, former Central Bank of Sri Lanka Governor Dr. Indrajit Coomaraswamy, under whose patronage OrphanCare was launched in 2019, donors, well-wishers, and business leaders from various esteemed partner institutions.

The Impact Report quantifies OrphanCare’s significant reach and deeply impactful work, with over 3,200 orphans from across 92 child care homes across the country benefiting from its financial assistance. The report also features numerous compelling impact stories, illustrating how OrphanCare’s funding and support has empowered orphans to overcome immense challenges, pursue higher education, initiate small businesses, and build brighter futures. These narratives powerfully demonstrate how, with the right support, these young individuals have been able to raise their heads with newfound confidence and purpose.
