*** SRI LANKA URGENT MEDICAL APPEAL ***

Dear Friends, Friends of Sri Lanka (then Ceylon),

As you may know Sri Lanka is going through a very difficult time due to its financial instability. Lack of foreign reserves in the country has caused a severe knock on effect in essential public services such as healthcare and transport. Sri Lankan healthcare system vastly depends on drugs, medicines and medical equipment that are imported from foreign suppliers. These imports have been severely low due to the lack of foreign reserves in the country.

We have reached out to a the relevant authorities of a few leading health boards/hospitals to offer our support and the first request for urgent medical support has been received from the Lady Ridgeway Hospital (LRH) for Children, which is the largest Paediatric hospital in Sri Lanka.

On behalf of Ranaviru Fund and Sri Lankan Association in Scotland, attached the request letter specifically issued to Ranaviru Fund / SLAS | Sri Lankan Association in Scotland. We will be fundraising through Ranaviru Fund, Scottish Registered Charity (OSCR Reg No SC041479) to support this urgent medical need of LRH.

As a fundamental practice and policy, Ranaviru Fund charity provides full financial accounts including the detailed expenses for all charitable projects it delivers.

Donations can be made via PayPal Giving Fund following the link below. UK donors, please consider adding Gift Aid to your donations at no extra cost to you.

Thank you for your support.
