LCI meets up in SL to help make a difference

The APAC Mid-Term Meeting of Ladies Circle International (LCI) was held at the Cinnamon Lakeside, Colombo, on February 24 and 25, with delegates deliberating on how to make a difference to those less fortunate by supporting community projects and raising funds for the needy, both locally and internationally. They were also able to enjoy Sri Lanka’s sunshine, beaches, wildlife and history during their stay.

LCI is currently a community of 13,000 women across five regions globally. “Our aim is to promote international friendship, understanding and goodwill by encouraging members to extend their knowledge of each other and other people,” said Martina Santoro, President, Ladies Circle International (LCI). “We are nonpolitical and non-sectarian. We promote, co-ordinate and develop working relationships with Round Table International,

Tangent International, Agora Club International and Club 41 International, wherever possible.”

“For us it is an opportunity to bring awareness about circling and the opportunity to build friendships and bonds with others from around the region and the rest of the world. It is also an opportunity to bring about international exposure for our country,” said Sanjana Selvarajah, President, Ladies Circle Sri Lanka. “Ladies Circle works closely with Round Table International, a similar organisation for men. Round Table Sri Lanka (RTSL) is an organisation of non-political and non-sectarian young men between the age group of 18 and 40 / 45 with an aim to promote service, fellowship and goodwill in national and international affairs.
