Honoring a Legacy by Empowering Children and Communities for a Brighter Future

Our Story of Compassion and Impact

Devthilina is a charity born from love, loss, and a deep desire to make a difference. Founded in 2014 in memory of Rev. Srilal Karunaratna’s youngest son, who passed away unexpectedly, Devthilina was established to honor his memory by transforming grief into meaningful action. What began as a way to remember a beloved soul has grown into a decade-long mission to uplift and empower children, families, and communities across Sri Lanka.

At Devthilina, we are guided by three core principles: ensuring the health of children, providing them with quality education, and instilling strong moral values and discipline. These pillars are the foundation of our work, driving our efforts to create lasting change in the lives of those we serve.

Over the years, we have expanded our reach through a wide array of projects and programs. From health initiatives and educational support to vocational training and women’s development programs, we are committed to addressing the diverse needs of our communities. Our work includes conducting seminars for scholarship students, providing monthly financial sponsorships for underprivileged children, and launching the ambitious Devthilina Community Centre, which will serve as a hub for education, wellness, and community development.

Our journey is one of hope, resilience, and unwavering dedication to the well-being of others. Every project we undertake, every child we support, and every community we touch is a testament to our commitment to building a brighter future. We believe that through compassion and collective effort, we can turn challenges into opportunities and dreams into reality.
