LB Finance is propelled by the desire to contribute to the quality of life experienced by everyone; that’s been LB Finance’s vision since the start.
LB Finance’s commitment to corporate social responsibility has many facets, including supporting young people, who will be the next generation leaders, to be all they can be. LB finance strongly believes, “Our schools are the cornerstone of our society. And education is the most important tool we can provide today’s youth to allow for a bright future.”
After successfully completing several CSR projects in the year 2013, LB Finance has partnered the Society of Science of University of Colombo to carry on a project for Monaragala district O/L students. From 23 September 2013 to 27 September 2013, the Science Society of the University of Colombo organises a series of seminars for mathematics and science for G.C.E O/L students in non-privileged, rural areas of the Monaragala district. LB finance supports the society in conducting the seminar and provides additional learning materials and school supplies for O/L students.
The objective of this CSR activity is to enhance the livelihood of this poverty driven area towards a better and prosperous future, as a result the students of this area will be further equipped to face modern challenges of the society with enhanced knowledge. LB Finance provides model exam paper books and past paper exam books for science and mathematics and school supplies for more than 750 school children from selected schools in the Monaragala district. LB Finance PLC believes in supporting school students through providing additional learning materials and school supplies. Having the learning materials and school supplies means the students will not have to worry about how they will fully participate in their studies or how to put that extra effort to excel in their O/L exams. The donations will take the burden off the families who are unable to purchase the past paper books and school supplies for their children.
LB Finance is propelled by the desire to contribute to the quality of life experienced by everyone; that’s been LB Finance’s vision since the start. Through this project, we aim to enable more children to go to school continuously and to help local communities improve their educational standards in an independent and consistent manner.
