Our Special Projects initiative focuses on delivering targeted, high-impact programmes that address the diverse needs of older people and vulnerable families across Sri Lanka. These projects strengthen economic resilience, improve access to essential services, and create pathways to dignity, independence and overall wellbeing. Through medical support campaigns, livelihood development, disaster response and rights-based advocacy, we ensure elders and communities receive holistic, reliable and compassionate care.
Recent impact: Over 6,500 elders supported through special projects, 1,200 families assisted with livelihood development, 400+ cataract surgeries completed, and rapid disaster relief provided across multiple districts.
HelpAge Sri Lanka provides essential medical support for elderly communities across the nation. These programs focus on early detection, treatment, eye care, mobility support and preventive healthcare — reaching seniors who need it most.
