Chairman's Message

Merci Lanka Foundation has emerged over the years as very useful and vibrant organization by Grace of Almighty Allah due to the magnanimous support of our well-wishers and benefactors.

To date around 1000 deserving poor entrepreneurs have been assisted to either set up or expand livelihood projects.

Further we have also expanded our activities by offering loans and grant to the poor for expenses and general purposes, such as medical, house repairs, marriages etc.

Nearly 70% of our community is living below the poverty level and need to be supported and comforted.

We have also helped the needy from other community whenever our help was sought.

We are doing our utmost. However, the task is stupendous and demanding.

We are unable to cope with the meager resources at our disposal. Therefore, we kindly appeal to our fortunate brothers and sisters to extend your unstinted and generous assistance to carry out this noble task successfully and for many more years, Insha Allah.

Jazakallah Khairan to our well-wishers, donors, supporters and my fellow members of the Board of Directors, the London Team Members, Overseas Representative and our dedicated and hardworking staff.

May Almighty Allah Bless all of you.

Arooze Liyawadeen.
