First Capital Holdings PLC has launched a three-year CSR program by partnering with Habitat for Humanity Sri Lanka to build homes for families in need. Through this partnership, First Capital will pledge Rs. 15 million to implement the ‘First Capital Housing Project’ in the Galle district, providing deserving low-income families with safe and stable homes.
First Capital Holdings Director and CEO Dilshan Wirasekara said, “As a group we have taken the route of community building as an extension to our long-standing legacy and reputation of contributing to nation building initiatives. The three-year collaboration enables us to witness far-reaching impacts of this initiative considering the long-term benefits of supporting low-income families with safe housing.”
Habitat for Humanity Sri Lanka National Director, Yu Hwa Li said, “Habitat Sri Lanka has constructed affordable homes for more than 110,000 individuals across the country. These efforts have been possible through the generous donations we have received from institutional and corporate donors like First Capital.
We look forward to enriching the lives of the low-income families who will benefit from this project by providing them with decent, stable and safe places to call home.”
