Rotary Battaramulla Rolls Out “Help Her Raise” Phase 3 Annual Community Service Programme
Rotary Club of Battaramulla recently rolled out Phase 3 of their “Help Her Raise” annual community service programme to distribute maternity bags for disadvantaged pregnant mothers in Sri Lanka. The maternity bags, each valued at Rs. 7,935/- contains essential items required for the successful delivery and aftercare of the baby.
In its 3rd consecutive year, the Phase 3 of the project was conducted as a one-day programme on 28th April at the Homagama Base Hospital where the maternity bags were handed over to 135 most suitable pregnant mothers selected jointly by the Rotary Club of Battaramulla along with the officials of the administrative department of the hospital. 100 such maternity bags were distributed previously during Phases 1 and 2 of the project.
The Rotary Club of Battaramulla established the “Help Her Raise” project in 2019 to serve under the maternal & childcare category as a part of their annual community service programme. For the past three years, the Rotary Club of Battaramulla has been donating maternity bags that expectant mothers must take to the hospital when they admit themselves to their confinement.
Würth Lanka (Pvt) Ltd, a fully owned subsidiary of Würth Gmbh Germany, together with Auto Bavariya and other funding sources were the joint sponsors of Phase 3 of the “Help Her Raise” project.
