Lanka Hospitals made a generous donation of Rs. 10 million to the ‘Itukama’ Covid-19 Healthcare and Social Security Fund recently. 

The ‘Itukama’ is a fund-raising initiative to support and strengthen the fight against the spread of Covid-19 and Covid-19 related social welfare programmes.

“The Itukama project is a national initiative that supports those that are in the frontlines of the battle against Covid-19. This includes the health workers who continue to place other peoples’ lives above their own during these challenging times. 

We have witnessed this first-hand and we believe now is a time for us to show our gratitude and support to all those who are fighting on our behalf to beat the Covid-19 pandemic,” Lanka Hospitals’ Group Chief Executive Officer, Deepthi Lokuarachchi stressed.
