Phase 1 – Api- Nagam Event
Api-Nagam is an annual event done by Api Foundation in the month of April aiming to support rural low-income families with dry rations and food packs. The project is done with the purpose to aid the underprivileged community allowing them to celebrate the Sinhala-Tamil New year as everyone else in the country.
Sincere Gratitude for “ Api Negam – wms kE.us ” Program – 2022
It is with extreme gratitude, that we wish to inform you that Api Foundation successfully completed the ‘ Api Nagam programme 2022’ with the aim of supporting underprivileged rural families during the Sinhala-Tamil New Year.
Thanks to your charitable efforts, we were able to donate 126 essential food packs to the most deserving families at Kurulubedda village in polonnaruwa district.
In the 2nd year of our journey, due to the unwavering commitment of our donors, we managed to increase the number of packs from 55 to 126 this year, supporting more families in need. Thanks to all your generosity, we were able to accomplish more than the targeted number which was 75 packs initially.
Due to the heightened conditions of economic struggle and poverty brought by the Covid-19 Pandemic and current political-related shutdowns, especially for daily wage-earners and lower-income, households, this year it is more crucial than ever to support. With extreme gratitude, we acknowledge your contribution towards providing packs of essential foods to support the families from poverty-stricken backgrounds at “Kurulubedda village,Welikanda, Polonnaruwa”, who struggled to afford essential foods for their families during the Sinhala- Tamil New Year season.
We visited “Kurulubedda” on 10th April 2022 to distribute the food packs.
Thank you for the compassion and concern you have shown and for supporting our worthy cause of enriching humanity.
We look forward to being in touch with you on such projects in the future as well and looking forward to your continued support as helping people in need would bring immense happiness and countless blessings to each one of us.
