Community Service
Project Bale
This project heavily focuses on social infrastructure building, resource management, education, and livelihood simultaneous to community development. Project Bale is a community service, Joint Project with Leo club of NIBM, which is focused on turtle conservation. We have been working on finding a conservation center, finding a place to buy a cement tank for turtles, collecting the funds required for the project.
Also, we have chosen the Bluewave Sea Turtle conservation center in Galle taken care by few undergraduates, for the implementation of the project and decided to donate a cement tank for turtles as they didn’t have enough tanks. Also, we have helped them to clean all the turtle tanks and place the new tank properly for their use.

Project Senehasa
Part of being a person is about helping others. And helping others is the secret source to a happy life. There is always a glimpse of hope and happiness when giving to others; especially when it is for children. Project Senehasa is an initiative which was done to donate goods for children aged one to five years at Pem Niwasa in Moratuwa. The project was completed successfully by donating essential medicines and dry rations including milk packets and sweets. This initiative became a reason for someone to believe in the goodness of people.
Shades of Green
Environmental sustainability is the responsibility to conserve natural resources and protect global ecosystems to support health and wellbeing, now and in the future. Because so many decisions that impact the environment are not felt immediately, a key element of environmental sustainability is its forward-looking nature.
Industrial and technological growth means we need more power than ever. Yet our planet is reaching a breaking point. We are beginning to see the consequences of global warming on ecosystems and communities. That’s why now more than ever businesses need to invest in environmentally sustainable and socially responsible practices, like using clean energy and paying living wages, to secure a livable future.
Stop The Ragging
Many university students look forward to gaining entry to a university, and celebrating this milestone in their transition to adulthood. However, this elation and excitement is often replaced by fear and anxiety when students have to undergo harmful initiation practices and rituals.
All efforts must be used to eliminate ragging and its deleterious effects. There is a serious need for deep reforms within universities and a critical look at the role of structural violence, to successfully address ragging.
Green Legacy
“Rotary One Million Trees” is a timely initiative by Rotary International District 3220 Sri Lanka and Maldives, where a tree will be planted for every Rs.100 donated, and we started Green Legacy, an initiative to raise Rs.10,000 in aid of “Rotary One Million Trees,” and we encouraged anyone who was willing to donate any amount toward this project because even the smallest step can make a big difference.
We were able to obtain sponsorship from Nava Agriculture, a subsidiary of the Nava Tech parent company, with a commitment to address dynamic environmental issues. The company donated 10,000 LKR while the club members donated 2900 LKR for the initiative.
Kakulakata Sinahawak
” Kakulakata Sinawak” is part of Covid -19 Task Force’s district project “Stop The Spread.” The project was carried out at the Sri Wimalasara Maha Vidyalaya in Kaluthara. Members of the committee went on a pre- visit to assess the school’s environment. Sri Wimalasara Maha Vidyalaya has over 300 students in grades 1 to 5. Because it was their primary need, we were able to donate a foot paddled sink. This project was successfully completed while adhering to all of the Covid- 19 standards and procedures.
