Welcome to the Ranaviru Fund

The "Ranaviru Fund" (English meaning "War Heroes' Fund") was established in May 2008 to support disabled and wounded soldiers in Sri Lanka by providing Medical & Rehabilitation aid. To date, in three projects we have provided rehabilitation & medical aid worth over Rs. 2.3 Million to the Ranaviru Sevana (English meaning "Shelter for War Heroes") and the Military Hospital in Sri Lanka. Also as of 15 Dec 2009 we have secured over 555 scholarships worth about Rs. 30 million for the children of killed, missing or disabled soldiers by facilitating the scholarship programs of the Sri Lanka Air Force, Ranaviru Seva Authority (attached to the Ministry of Defence) and Sri Lanka Navy.

Delivery of items for the benefit of Visually Impaired Soldiers

Ranaviru Fund is pleased to announce the delivery of items to setup a resource centre for the soldiers with visual impairments. There are many soldiers who suffered eye injuries in the war against terrorism and subsequently lost complete sight or partial sight. Having inquired their requirements we were able to provide some of the necessary equipment to initiate this facility at the Ranaviru Sevana, Ragama.

Members from Ranaviru Fund officially handed these items to Major Dushyantha Yapa and other fellow officers and soldiers at the rehabilitation centre on 07th March 2010.

Building Wash Rooms for Soldiers Who Have Suffered Permanent Disability

Currently there are a number of soldiers rehabilitated at Ranaviru Sevana, Ragama waiting to return home to rejoin their families. However, most of these valiant soldiers have suffered permanent disabilities and require disable friendly wash room facilities at their residences in order to get back to their homes. Many of these soldiers do not have access to suitable wash room and water facilities. Ranaviru Fund has initiated a project to provide suitable wash room and water facilities for the soldiers recommended by the Ranaviru Sevana authorities.

We have received names of 9 such soldiers from different parts of the country and have selected 3 of them in Anuradhapura district to pilot the project. Following are the latest picture updates from the first 3 wash rooms being built in Anuradhapura district. Click each of the photo to find more details and photos of each wash room.

We have identified 9 such soldiers currently based at Ranaviru Sevana who are deprived of the opportunity of joining their families due to the lack of disabled friendly wash room facilities at their own homes. In phase 4 of our ongoing projects we are aiming to build wash rooms for these 9 soldiers.

List of the soldiers selected to be provided with the wash rooms as follows. Click each of the highlighted rows for further details.
