Sri Lanka Insurance Life (SLIC Life) has been uplifting the country's children through several CSR initiatives across the country.
Through its ‘Pasal Piriyatha Surakimu’ initiative the company has been at the forefront of creating better learning environments for underprivileged children across the country since the programme’s inception in 2007.
To date, the program has benefitted an impressive 3,365 schools across the island nation. The recent phase of the initiative, launched in May 2025 saw projects carried out simultaneously at 100 selected schools throughout the country. Activities were spearheaded by SLIC Life’s Regional and Branch offices, highlighting the strong involvement of the organisation. This nationwide initiative saw a multitude of programs taking place, including refurbishment of classrooms, provision of clean drinking water, colour washing and repair work, restoration of desks and chairs, and donation of books for both students and school libraries, along with addressing other basic school needs.
The overarching goal is to ensure that children have access to clean, safe, and inspiring learning spaces, especially in underserved communities. The deserving schools for the program were selected based on the categorisation of schools done by the ministry of education along with the observations and visits by the SLIC Life regional sales teams.
