Reaching out through ‘Heart to Heart’

As Musaeus College steps into her 130th year of existence, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Ajita de Zoysa has proposed a humanitarian mission to raise funds for the ‘Heart-to-Heart Trust Fund. The Trust Fund has been set up to bring solace to patients who are victims of heart diseases. Often, they are the sole breadwinners who have long languished on ‘waiting lists’ of Government hospitals, unable to find the necessary financial resources for lifethreatening heart surgeries.

So far, this Trust has contributed towards the cost of about 375 heart surgeries.

The Founders of this Trust Fund are Drs Ruwan Ekanayake and Rajitha de Silva, joined by other trustees who are in various forms of service. Ajita de Zoysa, Chairman of the Musaeus Board too is a trustee of the ‘Heart to Heart Trust Fund’.

By joining hands with this project, it is hoped that empathy and compassion towards humanity will be instilled among the students of Musaeus, qualities that are a dire need of today’s society.
