Due to the increased number of patients with kidney related diseases identified in the area, it has become a necessity to have access to filtered drinking water. The water that they consume from schools is unfiltered which is not optimal for drinking. This puts them at risk of diseases. Therefore their humble request to raise funds either to repair or buy us a new water filter to ensure the students’ health and hygiene. Taking the above matter into consideration, with the help of OSMO Tech we managed to repair all water filters of these three schools. This will ensure good health and hygiene of our children of the future.
Lankapura vidyalaya and Galketiyagama Primary School - Lankapura Maha Vidayalaya belongs to Lankapura division in Polonnaruwa district. This school is in service for the past 70 years and has a rich history. The student population is approximately 400 and the classes are held from Grade 1 to Grade 13. The parents of these students face severe economic difficulties. Our students have malnutrition problems and other health issues. Because of agricultural chemicals, well water and surface water are polluted and not in good drinking condition.
The funding for one of the three schools was funded by Sahani Garusinghe and Ashan Garusinghe and the ongoing water tank fundraiser who contributed for this cause. So thank you!
The project was successfully carried out with the help of Harshana Lakmal and Hard Truths. This initiative was closely liaised with the Divisional hospital for recommendations as well as Zonal offices for education in Polonnaruwa to ensure that schools which are in dire need of the repairs were addressed. So we want to thank all of you who did the due diligence to ensure that the most needed schools were served.
