Commenting on the initiative, Branding and Communications Senior Manager Nishan de Silva Wijeyeratne said, “At Mad Mobile, we believe in the power of giving back to the communities we operate within. Our #TakeCare Initiative is an expression of this belief, and through such efforts, we aim to reimagine the future by creating a positive impact on the lives of those in need”. He further went on to say, “with the rising cost of living impacting many across Sri Lanka, this initiative is dedicated to providing vital items to disadvantaged individuals and bring joy to children”.

This program was made possible by the generous donations made by the employees at CAKE Engineering and carried out in two phases – the first being a toy drive with donations made to the Chitra Lane School for the Special Child, and the second a clothing drive with donations made to three deserving orphanages in Sri Lanka – Boys Industrial Home, Delkhanda Balika Nivasa, and Prithipura Infants Home.

We are passionate about giving back to our community, and engaging with local bodies, such as RACCN.
