Shinnyo-en Lanka Preschool, a prestigious preschool education institution owned and operated by Shinnyo-en Japan is extremely pleased to announce its upcoming 32nd Annual Blood Donation drive. The Blood Donation program has continued each year and this year’s event is set to take place on 15 July 2023 from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm at the National Blood Transfusion Service (NBTS), Narahenpita.

Since its inception in 1987 by Buddhist Master Shinjo Ito, Shinnyo-en Lanka Free Nursery School has remained steadfast in its mission to offer a well-rounded preschool education and holistic learning experience to children aged 3 to 5 years free of charge. The school implements a unique blend of the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) methods and the National Policy on Preschool Education, ensuring that its young students receive a comprehensive educational foundation.

Operated and managed by Shinnyo-en Japan, Shinnyo-en Lanka Preschool draws inspiration from its Buddhist background, which emphasizes the potential for enlightenment within each individual. Embracing Master Shinjo Ito’s philosophy and wish for the “Children of Light” to be raised with the heart of altruism and purity in Sri Lanka, the Preschool has been a beacon of educational excellence for over three decades. This profound philosophy permeates the school’s educational approach, fostering an environment that nurtures compassion, empathy, and personal growth. The Preschool’s distinguished reputation stems from its commitment to providing a nurturing and inclusive environment, where children can thrive and develop their full potential.

Ikeda Mikinori, the Director of Shinnyo-en Lanka Preschool, expressed his deep appreciation for the overwhelming support received from the community, stating, “In Buddhism, the act of providing one’s own blood for the benefit of another is considered an extremely meritorious act. We are humbled and grateful to witness the annual outpouring of support from our dedicated staff, parents and well-wishers who willingly and selflessly donate blood, embodying the spirit of compassion and altruism.”

The Blood Donation Drive serves as a remarkable testament to the school’s enduring commitment to social welfare and community engagement. The Preschool also conducts various other social contribution activities and has stood steadfast with the people of Sri Lanka during times of need underscoring the close relations between the two countries

Shinnyo-en Lanka Preschool invites all eligible individuals within the community to join this noble cause and contribute to the invaluable act of blood donation. By participating, attendees will play an active role in saving lives and reinforcing the spirit of compassion and humanitarianism that defines the school’s ethos.
