Extending Support to the Community

In 2018, Ajith Jeyakumar, founder of VAAJ Group was approached to donate to children in need in a small village, 120 km away from Colombo, Sri Lanka. He went a step further to personally deliver much needed provisions to children in need. Little did he know this gesture will inspire into a new mission and commitment to help children in need.

Ajith is now working on a Vaaj Group’s philanthropic arm, dedicated to help children under 10 in need, especially children who have been diagnosed with cancer in Sri Lanka. Like many, he also believes that every child should laugh, dance, play and live as only a child can.

Mission

When a child is diagnosed with cancer their childhood days quickly changed to be filled with chemo and endless hospital visits. Life is changed forever for the child and the family. This is where Ajith wants to make a difference. He is striving to provide support during this difficult time by introducing a child enrichment program

Whilst this is still in inception, the intention of this program as below:

  • Certified specialists trained in child development to provide therapeutic arts and crafts, play and interactions of patients and siblings who are being treated for cancer
  • Provide educational assistance and tutoring for patients and siblings
  • Educational advocacy program
  • Develop and facilitate art and crafts, cooking and painting classes
  • Free fun and entertaining events outside hospital
  • Portable play carts stocked with toys, board games, arts and crafts and treats accessible to children in the hospital

Commitment

To commence his commitment to this extra ordinary cause, VAAJ Group will be contributing 1% of its income to vulnerable children who are in immediate need
