Bringing hope and relief to a duo, grandmother and grandson, battered and bruised in no uncertain means for over two decades.
LOLC officials having witnessed the hardships faced by a grandmother and grandson who had been orphaned at the age of four, living in a dilapidated house have provided them relief by building a new house for them.
The Regional Manager of the Eastern and Uva Regions as well as the Manager of the Badulla Branch of LOLC Finance PLC was assigned to spearhead the project of building a new house. The newly constructed house along with the required furniture, utensils and equipment were handed over to the grandmother and grandson recently. Speaking about the project, Montini Warnakula, Chief Operating Officer of LOLC Finance said, “This project was driven by our very own staff with much compassion and commitment. A team was immediately activated after witnessing the harsh life experienced by them. Above all, we consider this a tribute to the grandmother for her astounding courage and love towards taking care of her grandson single-handedly despite her age and her own limitations. We hope to continue to monitor and support the well-being of this family. I must say that at LOLC, our commitment to social esponsibility, especially to those who are most vulnerable is driven from the very top”.
