Sri Lankan society is an increasingly progressive one, however one pertinent issue is still kept in the dark: mental health, and Light aims to change that. Noticing that mental health is ridiculed, dismissed and neglected; the depressed are condoned, the suicidal are shunned and the bipolar are claimed mythical, Light is a youth led initiative that hopes to:
• Combat the stigma surr
ounding mental health spreading awareness and starting a productive conversation.
• Provide education and support to those who suffer from mental illness
• Donate and provide financial aid and support to better currently existing mental health care institutions
In order to do so, we need your help. Follow our social media to stay tuned on our exciting upcoming projects and spread the word that Light is here, to illuminate the way forward. Instagram: www.instagram.com/lightlka
