SLMANA owes a debt of gratitude to Dr Milinda Seneviratne for very successfully achieving the SLMANA mission during his term.
I am energized and optimistic to take over the reins and thank him for helping with the transition.
We are only too aware of the sadness of the pandemic as well as the current fund raising dilemmas facing charities world wide. This spurs us to search for new and innovative paths to raise funds in the coming year. Meanwhile, I hope to emphasize health promoting activities for the Sri Lankan community in the
tri-state area.
I urge our membership and benefactors to join me in these efforts and with your enthusiasm and faith in our resilience I see only good times ahead.
