Knuckles Water, in collaboration with one of the Country’s Largest Humanitarian Organization, the Sri Lanka Red Cross Society (SLRCS), has taken decisive action to support communities affected by recent flooding across Sri Lanka.
Marking the first step in a broader effort to ensure immediate access to clean drinking water for flood-affected families, Knuckles Water, bottled by Cargills Food and Beverages Ltd, has donated 5-litre Knuckles Water bottles to SLRCS Gampaha to aid the relief efforts. Over 1,000 families benefited from the distribution programme which focused on the Bollagala and Gagabadapara GS divisions, with around 600 families from each area receiving aid.
“At Cargills, we believe in extending a helping hand to our fellow Sri Lankans in times of need. Our partnership with the Sri Lanka Red Cross Society allows us to make a meaningful contribution to the well-being of those affected by the floods,” said Arjuna Kumarasinghe, Managing Director of Cargills Food & Beverages Ltd.
“It is a pleasure to partner with Knuckles by Cargills to support our flood-affected communities in the country. Knuckles’ kind donation to SLRCS’s flood relief efforts on the island is greatly appreciated. Access to clean water is crucial during such times, and this partnership ensures that the affected communities receive the essential support they need. We hope for a long-standing partnership to continue making a significant difference in the lives of the vulnerable,” added the Director General of the Sri Lanka Red Cross Society, Dr. Mahesh Gunasekara.
Knuckles Water is bottled at source in the surroundings of the Knuckles Mountain Range. This donation underscores the brand’s commitment to providing high-quality products while actively participating in humanitarian efforts.
