I had the pleasure of meeting Dil and Captain Elmo Jayawardena in early November.

Captain Elmo founded the charity, CandleAid Lanka, its sole aim is to provide a link between someone’s generosity and someone else’s need.

I passed Elmo and Dil a cheque for $500 to support CandleAid’s swim for safety program.  Sadly, this program will be coming to a close soon but there will be new projects for Spratly to support at CandleAid.  Watch this space for more information.
