The People’s Bank of Sri Lanka has adopted an ambulance to support the 1990 Suwa Seriya Foundation’s ‘Adopt an Ambulance’ project.
The ambulance was officially released this week at the People’s Bank Head Office in Colombo 02 to operate in the Kalutara south area.
Established in 2016, the 1990 Suwa Seriya Foundation provides free pre-hospital care ambulance and emergency response services to all individuals in need.
Last year the foundation introduced the ‘Adopt an Ambulance’ initiative to secure private sector funding to sustain the services it offers, as the government’s assistance for Suwa Seriya was impeded due to financial constraints brought on by the economic crisis in the country.
