On 7th September 2025, Lion Lakshantha Degambada of the Lions Club of Kesbewa generously contributed Rs. 200,000 for the completion of the roof of the Alms Hall (Dāna Shālāva) at the Gongaram Purana Viharaya, which had remained unfinished for some time.
This donation enabled the temple to complete a vital facility used for community gatherings and religious activities, reflecting a commitment to preserving heritage, supporting spiritual institutions, and serving the community. The project exemplifies the Lions’ dedication to humanitarian service and cultural preservation, highlighting how timely support can restore functionality and dignity to important community structures.
