'Ranaviru' in Sinhala means War Heroes. We, a group of like minded friends found Ranaviru Fund in Scotland on 03rd May 2008 with the aim of providing medical and rehabilitation aid for the disabled and wounded soldiers. In 2010 Ranaviru Fund has become a Registered Charity, registered in Scotland No SC041479.

We are a group of friends and like minded people got together from around the world to support brave service personnel who fought against terrorism and lost their lives or suffered life changing injuries. Our primary objective is to support the families of those who lost lives, service personnel who suffered life changing injuries or trauma and also the immediate families of such personnel. By providing medical, welfare, social, educational and financial assistance we are focusing the service personnel and their immediate families in Sri Lanka, where a 30 year long fight against terrorism has ended in 2009.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Email

Q: Is Ranaviru Fund a Registered Charity?
A: Yes. Ranaviru Fund is a registered charity in the United Kingdom and registered in Scotland under the number SC041479. Please click here to view the OSCR directory.

Q: How does Ranaviru Fund operate?
A: Ranaviru Fund is operated entirely by volunteers, who provide their services and time free of charge.

Q: What are your operational costs?
A: We do not have operational costs because the Ranaviru Fund is entirely run by volunteers. When we do incur such costs (eg. manage the website, cost of communication etc) they will be borne by the volunteers. Our website is hosted free of charge by a well wisher and the website is fully developed by the members of our team. Stationary, travel & transport, telephone, postage and other operational costs are paid by the volunteers. Please download and read the Ranaviru Fund constitution to find out more about our operational model and policies.

Q: How do you get the requirements before donations are made?
A: We get the requirements directly from the relevant authority which we are doing the project for. For example in the case of the donation of the medical equipment we got the requirements directly from the Military Hospital, and then called for quotes/specs from several suppliers for different brands. These quotes/specs were then forwarded to the relevant authorities to get their feedback on what suits their needs best.

Q: How can I verify authenticity of your work?
A: We closely work with the authorities to identify, analyse and to provide the requirements of soldiers. Our best efforts are put to keep the authorities up to date with our involvements. We publish all invoices after paying for the goods & services and we also publish the acknowledgement received from receiving party after handing over the donations in our website under Our Projects.

For further verifications you may contact the authorities listed under "Authenticity" section.
