Timeless Classics”, featuring the much loved Soundarie David and Shey Liyanage, is a concert to raise funds towards two of the Rotary Club of Colombo East’s anchor projects, namely, Project BEAP - Accident and Emergency Trauma Unit Centre at the Teaching Hospital in Batticaloa, and the eradication of dengue which has claimed many lives in the island over the last few years. The Rotary Club of Colombo East is proud to partner with Shangri-La Hotel, Colombo for this worthy cause.

“The Trauma Centre of the Emergency and Accident Services at the Batticaloa Hospital is to be upgraded and modelled after the Karapitiya Emergency Hospital, a previous project of the Rotary Club of Colombo East. This initiative is a long overdue need in Batticaloa as the Eastern Province has approximately 7 lives being lost each day and many more persons injured,” says Indrajith Fernando, President, Rotary Colombo East.

Timeless Classics will feature an amazing line up of talent including, Soundarie David, Shehara (Shey) Liyanage and more. Timeless Classics will take place at the Shangri-La Ballroom on November 26.

Timothy Wright, Vice President and General Manager, Shangri-La Hotel, Colombo, had this to say:

“Shangri-La Hotel, Colombo is happy to partner with the Rotary Club Colombo East on this project to work towards enhancing facilities at the Batticaloa Hospital and also the eradication of dengue”.

Timothy elaborates, “Embracing such initiatives allows Shangri-La Hotel, Colombo to endorse both research toward long term solutions for pressing national issues, while also contributing towards immediate

solutions. This is our commitment to the communities in which we operate”.
