Passion drives us to achieve our dreams and goals. We, the Kandy team strives to do our very best and to show our true colors to others. Our passion is none other than building up a wonderful world for the generations to come. But what is passion if not for a combination of sheer enthusiasm, energy, creativity and patience coupled with confidence and dedication.

A leadership development project was organized for grade 11 students of Sri Pada Central College on 21st of May 2018, on the request of their Principal. According to the Principal of the School, the children are at a risk of getting addicted to drugs which is a major concern in that area.

This project was a combination of 3 phases and was done with the help of Old Boys of Sri Pada central college.

Phase 1 - Leadership development and team building session

Phase 2 - Drug Awareness session by Narcotic bureau

Phase 3 - Workshop on Dressing sense

The workshop conducted covered the areas of awareness on drugs, leadership development and team building, preparation of GCE Ordinary level examination and about dressing sense. It was yet another brilliant project by RAC Kandy, a single but a huge step towards a better tomorrow.

Vesak Lantern Project

The Vesak Lantern Project is a signature project done by the Rotaract Club of Kandy organized in celebration of Vesak Festival. This year Vesak Lanterns project was held on the 29th pf April 2018. It was organized in collaboration with the Interact Club of Hillwood College, Kandy. The Rotaractors and Interactors went to the Childrens’ Home at around 8 a.m, with things needed to make Vesak lanterns. There were 35 children in the Children's Home and we made thirty lanterns with the children from morning to evening. We also provided them with a small healthy snack of fruits and chocolates. We added more to this worthy cause by donating some books for their library as well.

Through this project we were able to spend some quality time with these children while teaching them to make Vesak Lanterns, and also the children too enjoyed our company and were extremely happy to be with us. We were able to give them the love and affection which they are seeking for, even if it was for a short period of time.
