Our organization
Our Organization is successful since its launch in 2005 thanks to the great commitment of countless volunteers and professionals who offer their services. Everyone is committed to the project with passion and works for the orphanage without pay. The Foundation has no paid employees. We work from home to reduce costs.
Sri Lanka Orphanage Foundation has a Daily Board, a Supervisory Board and a Committee of Recommendation, assisted by ambassadors of the project and volunteers with various skills.
