Eton Health Care and Lions Club donate spectacles

-

In commemorat­ion of the World Elders Day spectacles were donated by Lion Ranjith Kulatunga, Managing Director of Eton Health Care at its premises.

The Chief Guest was Deshamanya Nimal Ranawaka, the District Governor of Lion District 306 C2. This act of charity was carried out for the 3rd consecutiv­e time to commemorat­e the death anniversar­y of his father Rehenasiri Kulatunga.

In the previous two years this was done by giving away medical treatment and medical equipment to thousands of patients.

In his speech Lion Kulatunga said that his theme is giving sight to see the world. He further added that specially the elders belonging to low income levels, due to their ignorance, lose opportunit­ies of prevention and avoiding such situations and through correct advice and guidance and providing suitable spectacles, they will be able to do their day to day work properly and would lead a happy life.

Another commendabl­e feature of the programme was the skillful performanc­es of the two eminent artists Giriraj Kaushalya and Rodni Warnakula which added much joy to the happy audience. In expressing their views the elders wished that Lion Kulatunga may be blessed with strength and courage to do such noble deeds in the future and these types of good deeds should be an example for others. Caring for the parents and elders is a good deed.

This event was organized by Lions Club of Maharagama Central. In parallel to this event a project to plant trees was also carried out.
