The Swadeshi Industrial Works PLC the manufacturer of Khomba herbal soap – the No. 01 herbal soap brand in Sri Lanka with Rotary Club of Colombo West, donates a tube well for the families in Sugaladevigama, Nuwaragala, Dimbulagala. This CSR project continues under “Swadeshi Khomba Herbal Soap” brand and “Rotary Club of Colombo West”. Swadeshi recently donated water tanks to rural villages all over the island.
Spokesperson of Swadeshi said that as a Sri Lankan owned company, we consider it a duty to help the communities in the rural areas in Sri Lanka to raise a healthier younger generation. Getting safe water for drinking in schools is a big problem in dry zone areas in Sri Lanka. During the driest times of the year, children are having health issues by not consuming sufficient water during the day. Communities suffer many difficulties and hardships due to this.
It’s another “Swadeshi Khomba Praja Sathkaraya” project which gives safe water for hundreds of people living in dry zone of Sri Lanka. At Swadeshi we think this is our own social responsibility and we are hoping to continue this kind of projects in years to come” she added.
Rotary which commenced in 1905, is a worldwide organisation whose membership now exceeds 1.25 million in over 200 countries with the motto of ‘Service above self’, and in Sri Lanka itself, has more than 1,400 Rotarians in 70 Rotary Clubs. The Rotary Club of Colombo West, one of the largest clubs in Sri Lanka, with nearly 100 members is actively involved in community service projects across the country including ‘Water and Sanitation’ which is an important avenue of service. Around 120 families are benefited by this tube well project in Sugaladevigama, Nuwaragala, Dimbulagala which is located in the dry zone of Sri Lanka.
Swadeshi Khomba also annually illuminates country’s most famous temples under the theme, “Swadeshi Khomba Aloka Puja Sathkaraya”, “As a Sri Lankan owned company, we consider it a duty to safeguard the culture and traditional heritage of Sri Lanka by supporting activities such as Aloka Poojawa” she added.
