Empowering Minds: SLAAAA's Support Transforms Thirukonamadu Muslim School Reading Room

In a significant gesture of support, the Sri Lankan and Australian Awarded Alumni Association Association (SLAAAA) has made a noteworthy impact on Thirukonamadu Muslim School in the Polonnaruwa district. The association has generously contributed several books and furniture to enhance the college's reading room, responding to the specific needs of the students studying at this institution.

The event, which took place amidst customs and traditions, saw the active participation of high-ranking members of the organization, including its president and secretary. On the 4th of November 2018, they officially handed over the newly equipped reading hall to the principal, teachers, and students.

This initiative goes beyond the immediate contribution of books and furniture; it signifies a commitment to education and community development. SLAAAA members believed such programs should extend beyond Thirukonamadu Muslim Computer College to all needy places. The books provided are not mere study materials but tools to mould students into responsible citizens. The organization emphasizes that the cycle of poverty, unemployment, and criminal activities can be broken through education.

As members of this organization, S.T.Seelan, they encourages their peers to participate actively in implementing similar programs in various locations. Their vision is clear – these books should not only be utilized by students but should serve as building blocks to shape individuals into good citizens, fostering positive societal change.

In the words of SLAAAA member S.T.Seelan said, "Education is the key to building a better future. By empowering students with knowledge, we contribute to eradicating social issues. Let us unite to create a society where education is a powerful force for positive transformation."
