A Memorable Visit to the heart of Dilmah

11 MAY 2023

The participants of the 75^th Edition of the Dilmah School of Tea visited the heart of Dilmah – The MJF Centre in Moratuwa and our Child Development Centre at the beautiful Somerset Estate. They came to witness firsthand the incredible impact of their beloved Dilmah Tea on our community. They met our children, youth and other beneficiaries of the Dilmah MJF Foundation and spent a wonderful few hours experiencing a taste of Sri Lankan cuisine, music, and traditional games while dancing with the Giant Puppet Saama. It was an opportunity for them to understand the positive impact that a cuppa Dilmah could bring to the lives of our children and families from vulnerable communities.
