‘Manudam Mehewara’ initiative by Dialog, MAS and Hemas starts emergency relief distribution

The ‘Manudam Mehewara’ initiative by Dialog Axiata PLC, MAS Holdings, Hemas Holdings PLC, Sarvodaya Shramadana Movement and PwC Sri Lanka commenced the distribution of emergency relief to the most vulnerable families and communities in the country impacted by the ongoing economic crisis. 

Joining hands with like-minded partners including its execution partner Sarvodaya and accountability partner PwC Sri Lanka, the Manudam Mehewara initiative funded by Dialog, MAS and Hemas aims to provide emergency relief to more than 100,000 adversely-affected families across the country, especially communities in deep poverty. ITN, Siyatha, Swarnawahini, TV Derana and Vasantham also joined the initiative as media partners.

Emergency relief is currently being distributed across all 25 districts, and the Manudam Mehewara program will conduct its relief efforts for 60-90 days, until a sustainable benefit transfer system is established in the country through an effective economic recovery plan.

Manudam Mehewara invites all corporates to join this effort and help expand the emergency relief distribution operations.
