LOLC ‘Divi Saviya’ reaching 3,500 schools across the country

The LOLC Divi Saviya humanitarian effort has reached a significant landmark by supporting 3,500 schools, surpassing 35 percent of the total number of schools in the island. 
Launched in February 2023, this initiative has steadily and consistently reached and enriched the nation’s young minds. As Phase 03 of the project progresses, LOLC Divi Saviya is focused on schools accommodating 101-150 students. 
This strategic move aims to ensure that even the most underprivileged schools have access to essential educational resources.
Neelamani Malawiarachchi, the former Additional Secretary (School Affairs) of the Ministry of Education said, “Even though we provide school uniforms, syllabuses, teachers, and textbooks to students through the ministry, we seek the support of parents to provide the kids with school exercise books and accessories. 

However, there are certain parents in this country who are unable to afford these things, under the current economic challenges. Today, even middle-class parents with few children in their families find it difficult. At this point, the intervention of LOLC is commendable, as LOLC has become an obvious hand to support these parents.”
Divi Saviya provides a comprehensive school package to these students, where every child feels equal and privileged to learn in the classroom without disparity. The most important thing is that every student receives the same set offine books, pastels, bags, toolboxes, etc., so that no one feel differentiated.
