Helping our health care system will always be a positive. Ever since the pandemic started, many Sri Lankans here & abroad have supported the hospital & public health setup. This directly benefits all Sri Lankans now & even in the future.
Thank you so much ❤

Global Shapers around the world are stepping up to support healthcare systems. Check out this initiative from @ColomboShapers!
Over the past few weeks, the Kalubowila hospital officials have expressed the need for ICU beds and oxygen tanks (xitter.cf/rumindahg/status/14278…). Due to the urgent nature of this requirement, we are aiming to raise funds amounting to LKR 1.529mn during a limited window of 7 days.
