In an inspiring display of community support and solidarity, the Mahindians UAE and Qatar Old Boys’ Association (OBA) have made a significant contribution to the students of Mahinda College. Together, they have donated a total of 200 pairs of school shoes, ensuring that students can attend school with the necessary comfort and dignity that proper footwear provides.
The generous contribution from Mahindians UAE accounted for 148 pairs of the shoes, while the remaining 52 pairs were funded by the Qatar OBA. This collective effort not only highlights the strength and commitment of our global alumni network but also reinforces the importance of providing practical assistance to support the educational journey of current students.
Mahindians UAE president Mr. Ajantha Premarathna participated at the event, representing the entire Mahindians UAE community.
The donation event was held at the school Olcott Hall, where the shoes were distributed to the students in need. The joy and gratitude expressed by the students were palpable, marking the event as a memorable day filled with smiles and heartfelt thanks.
Such initiatives underscore the core values of Mahinda College’s alumni community, which is always eager to give back and support the next generation. It is through acts like these that the spirit of kinship and community service is kept alive within the Mahindian family.
We extend our deepest gratitude to both the Main OBA of Mahinda College and Qatar OBA for their dedication and support. Their commitment not only aids in meeting immediate needs but also fosters a sense of community and belonging among the students.
Let us continue to support and inspire each other, proving that no matter where in the world we are, the spirit of Mahinda College remains strong and ever-present.
Together, we make a difference!
