Description
In September 2022, I had the privilege of contributing to the educational development of Danakiriya Primary School in the Moneragala District of Uva Province, SRI LANKA. This initiative aimed to enrich the learning environment for 34 students by establishing a well-equipped library.
Key Contributions:
- Book Donation: Donated approximately 150 books to establish the school’s library.
- Student Support: Provided paper books, workbooks, and essential stationery (pens, pencils, erasers, sharpeners, and color pencil boxes) to every student in Grades 4 and 5.
- Infrastructure Improvement: Donated two book racks to organize the library effectively.
- Essential Aid: Provided a first aid box for immediate medical needs.
- Student Encouragement: Distributed small gifts to students to foster a positive learning environment.
Conclusion
This project will upgrade the library in this school and provide necessary learning materials to:
- Stimulate a love for reading and learning
- Improve academic performance
- Create a conducive learning environment
