Elephant House supports Punarjeewa Fund

Elephant House Ice Cream recently extended its support to the 'Punarjeewa Fund' with a contribution of Rs. 300,000 by becoming the main sponsor of the 'Punarjeewa Heart Walk' held on October 31.

The walk which kicked off from the Roxy Cinema Wellawatta, attracted several people along the way, and ended at the Conimara Reception Hall in Dehiwela.

The Punarjeewa Fund was initiated by Deshabandu Deshashakthi Dr. Soma Edirisinghe in February 2006 with the principal goal of assisting people undergoing surgery for heart-related diseases which has helped several people to date.

Vice President, Head of Frozen Confectionary Neil Samarasinghe said that Elephant House Ice Cream was honoured to be associated with the Punarjeewa Fund and thus be of assistance to thousands of needy people. "As a responsible corporate citizen we too are aware of our consumers' medical requirements.

This was the key idea behind the launch of Vanilla Lite, our popular no-sugar ice cream which enables health conscious consumers to indulge without guilt.

Elephant House Vanilla Lite Ice Cream has in fact been actively supporting several health related programs and activities in the country".
