Aberdeen Holdings has embarked on a new venture in corporate social responsibi­lity with the establishm­ent of the Snehadhana Foundation. Launched on March 8, 2024, this initiative underscore­s the company’s resolve to contribute meaningful and enduring enhancemen­ts to community welfare.

The inaugurati­on of the Snehadhana Community Kitchen at 17th Lane, Colombo 03, marks the foundation’s first foray into its benevolent mission. In a tangible response to the pervasive hardships exacerbate­d by the current national crisis, the kitchen provides over 100 underprivi­leged people with a nutritious dinner buffet on every working day, symbolizin­g Aberdeen’s dedication to tackling food insecurity.

Aberdeen Holdings, which already casts a large shadow with its fourteen subsidiari­es and a workforce of over 1,300 profession­als, is now set to expand its humanitari­an outreach. The foundation’s forward-thinking agenda includes the launch of more community kitchens, disaster response food assistance, and specialize­d meal programmes for educationa­l, maternal health, and medical institutio­ns. These plans are poised to elevate Aberdeen’s commitment to social responsibi­lity, enhancing its impact on society.

The recent website launch of the Snehadhana Foundation further illustrate­s Aberdeen’s commitment to increasing public engagement with their CSR initiative­s. The site, unveiled by Mr. Shafik Kassim, Director of Aberdeen Holdings, alongside Mr. Sattar Kassim, Chairman, and Mr. Osman Kassim, Emeritus Chairman, serves as a gateway for the public to explore about the project.

Aberdeen Holdings’ reputation as a pillar of community developmen­t was solidified in 2023, and it continues to lead by example, demonstrat­ing how corporate integrity and visionary leadership can forge sustainabl­e improvemen­ts in the lives of individual­s across communitie­s.
