Donor Testimonial

Feroz Omar, Director, Brandix Lanka Ltd

''The work carried out at the SOS Children’s Villages represent hope and direction for Sri Lanka. Their ethos of ‘Every child belongs to a family and grows with love, respect and security’ shows how much passion and commitment they have towards their vocation. This mission is a shining example of how Sri Lankans can come together in rebuilding the lives of orphans and provide them with a future. It is my sincere hope and wish that others too will come forward in helping this worthy humanitarian initiative.''
