Surya Foundation is a registered charity in Sri Lanka operational since 1992. The aim of the Surya Foundation is to support the Social integration process of the country through various programs targeting the underprivileged of society with equal opportunities for learning, employment & healthcare amongst others to “Bring light to the lives of the community”, which is the vision of the foundation.
Surya Foundation is the brainchild of Hon Karu Jayasuriya – the former speaker of Parliament and was founded in 1992 during his tenure as the Ambassador to Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. The main emphasis, in inception, was targeted at strengthening healthcare as this was the single component that caused the highest out-of-pocket expenditure in mostly the rural communities. The first medical clinic was conducted by the Chairperson herself, Dr (Mrs) Vasantha Jayasuriya in 1993 and continues to date and has become Sri Lanka’s longest-running free medical camp.
The flag and song of Surya Foundation represent unity, service, and commitment to uplifting communities across the nation.
Our organization song reflects the spirit of harmony, empowerment, and collective responsibility that guides all our initiatives.
