“The function was a great success and as a foundation, we can’t thank the support given by everybody from all around the UK, from their generous kit donations to helping raise funds to ship the equipment itself. With it being a challenging past few years with Covid, we are overwhelmed with the generosity of the UK public in making this happen,” the Ceylon Cricket Foundation said.
The Foundation further said that with welcoming 21 brand new schools, it has been able to support over 80+ schools now in the space of 4 years since the start of the Ceylon Cricket Foundation. We’ve supported these schools with Kit Donations, Coaching Programs, and more, it added.
