Golf day · 4 October 2024

Founded in 1996, run entirely by a group of volunteers living in the U.K and its goal has always been support communities living extremely arduous conditions and in some of the most inhospitable terrain an in remote areas across Sri Lanka.

Story

The 9th annual Scores for Schools golf day will take place on 4th October 2024 at West Essex Golf Club. Over the last eight years - and despite some terrible amateur golf in wind, rain and occasional sunshine - we've raised funds to support more than 135 children in rural Sri Lanka to benefit from Hela Sarana's education bursary.

Sri Lanka's economy continues to experience significant challenges; disproportionately affecting the most vulnerable communities; invariably in rural districts. The World Food Programme states that 31% of under 5s are malnourished and 26% of the population live below the UN-defined poverty line.

Charities like Hela Sarana are attempting to address these problems. Run by volunteers in the UK and Sri Lanka, the charity delivers a range of effective projects which we have seen first hand, including medical aid and an education programme which has now supported more than 600 children.

Thanks so much for your support, please give what you can.
