HelpAge Christmas cards benefit elders’ free Cataract Surgeries
View(s):
This year’s Christmas season is coming closer, and as in the past, this year too
HelpAge has released over 400,000 Christmas greeting cards.
During this season of giving, people would like to help each other in many ways. Many are in the habit of contributing towards the welfare of less-privileged elders in our society. By purchasing HelpAge Christmas greeting cards you can, additionally, greet friends, relations and loved ones.
The proceeds are utilised to perform free cataract surgeries on less-privileged senior citizens over 55 years. The surgeries are done at HelpAge Eye Hospital, Wellawatta (Opposite Savoy Cinema).
The greeting cards are adorned with colourful photographs, paintings and graphic designs which are embossed and foiled.
The cards are on sale at reasonable prices at bookshops including MD Gunasena, Sarasavi, Vijitha Yapa, Unique Creations and at HelpAge Head Office at 102 Pemananda Mawatha, Raththanapitiya, Boralesgamuwa.
