Today, we conducted an awareness session in partnership with Korean University and Sri Lanka Marine University at Thellippalai Union College. Lecturer Koli Lin participated in the session, along with members of the Rotary Club, teachers, and students.

At the Rotary Club of Chunnakam Heritage (Rotary District 3220, Sri Lanka & Maldives), empowering youth through quality education, global exposure, and career guidance remains a cornerstone of our community initiatives. Preparing students for the future requires broadening their horizons, connecting them with world-class academic pathways, and equipping them with knowledge about emerging global industries.
