"Heta Lowata Diriyak" CSR Project - 2023

The CEFEN Students’ Association of the Department of Entrepreneurship at the University of Sri Jayewardenepura recently organized a heart-warming CSR project, “Heta Lowata Diriyak”, to support the education of underprivileged children facing economic challenges. The project aimed to make a difference in the lives of these innocent children and contribute towards their educational development.

The selected school for this initiative was WP/HO Kadugoda Primary School, situated on the outskirts of the Colombo district. A team of students and the academic staff of the Department of Entrepreneurship visited the school on the 10th of March 2023 to spend quality time with the children and distribute the stationery collected to students. Furthermore, a seminar on accounting and business studies, along with a past paper discussion, was conducted by the undergraduates of the departments for students who are to sit for the Ordinary Level Exam in the coming months.

Apart from the seminar, the team also conducted a leadership development session that included various games that provided the students with an opportunity to interact with others, learn and grow. The stationary was distributed, and refreshments were served to all the students of the school at the end of the program. CEFEN students’ wing is headed by Ms. Pubudini Liyanage as the advisor and senior treasurer and Mr. Dhanuka Perera as the deputy advisor.
