Optimist International now has a presence in Sri Lanka. A student with a history of volunteering, who attends the Royal Institute International School of Higher Education in Colombo, Sri Lanka, (pictured below) reached out to Optimist International and wanted to establish a Junior Optimist Club.
“My friends and I wanted to find a platform from which we could launch efforts to make Sri Lanka a better place”, said Arosheny Puvanenthirarajah. “We are excited to be a part of Junior Optimist International.”
