Maldives Ports Limited has contributed MVR 350,000 to the “Ceylon aa eku Dhiveheen” telethon supporting Sri Lanka after Cyclone Dithwa.
MPL said the donation will help Sri Lanka recover from the crisis. The amount includes contributions from the company and its employees.
Fundraising boxes were set up at three MPL sites: the head office, Malé North Harbour, and Malé South West Harbour. Staff and the public were invited to donate.
Cyclone Dithwa caused major damage in Sri Lanka. Homes were destroyed. Landslides struck several regions. Infrastructure suffered heavy losses. The need for aid remains urgent.
