  Let’s Lend a Helping Hand to a War Hero

The Seva Vanitha Army Branch (SVAB) of Sri Lanka Army is a non-profit making organization, formed by the wives of Army officers. Established in 1985, it strives to provide for the well-being of Army personnel and their families. Special care is extended towards the families of War Heroes who have made the supreme sacrifice, gone missing or become disabled at the battlefield.

The Seva Vanitha Army Branch has implemented many projects over the years. It receives assistance from philanthropists and coordinates donations of artificial limbs, arms, elbow crutches, crutches, artificial eyes, electric wheelchairs, catheters, etc. They are subsequently donated to disabled officers and soldiers. Donors have the option of contributing either cash for purchase of those items or donating any of those equipment or medical accessories directly to the SVAB.

Assist us to support our Army personnel and the ones they love since they have sacrificed their today for the sake of our tomorrow.

Your invaluable gesture of support will go a long way in encouraging and strengthening our mission in providing for the well-being and happiness of the War Heroes of Sri Lanka.

We earnestly invite you to feel the simple pleasure of giving and the rewarding joy of witnessing the happiness and encouragement of the disabled War Heroes who receive your generosity.
