The five Dutch foundations provided endowments to the e-learning center in the Northern Province of Sri Lanka. The first e-learning centre was established in the year 2019 with the partnership of Caritas-Valvuthayam, Mannar. The courses have been effectively carried on by the IT unit. It is a joint venture of Dutch funding partners (A Helping Hand Foundation, Rockids Foundation, Havanos, and Wild Ganzen)
The second e-learning computer center is established to reach out to the students in the remotest villages of the Vavuniya District. It was officially inaugurated on the 1st of February 2022, by the Helping Hand Foundation Chairman Mr.Piet Houtenbos & His Wife Mrs.Lydia, in the presence of Rev.Fr.S.Arunthas (Assistant Director) Caritas- Valvuthayam, and Mr.R.V.Antonythas Fernado (Administrative &Programme Officer) and Mr.J.Thavanerojan (Course Coordinator). The new e-learning computer NVQ level 3 course has been commenced with 11 students.
Caritas-Valvuthayam is glad and grateful to the Five Dutch Foundation partners (A Helping Hand Foundation, Rockids Foundation, Ayubowan Foundation, Havanos, and Wild Ganzen) for bringing down these valuable resources and opportunities for war-affected students and youths. This e-learning course helps youths to be qualified and get the NVQ level 3 certification to improve their future employment opportunity. Caritas-Valvuthayam with grateful memories thank Crowedlearn Mr.Udana Wickramasinghe for creating the e-learning course in our targeted villages.
