Compassion over capital: Janashakthi partners President's Fund to ...
By Ifham Nizam In a landmark move that signals a shift in corporate philanthropy in Sri Lanka, Janashakthi Group (JXG) has entered into a pioneering partnership with the President’s Fund to provide financial support for children requiring urgent medical care—irrespective of ethnicity, religion, region, or social standing. Addressing journalists at the Hilton, Colombo, Managing Director/Group CEO Ramesh Schaffter said the initiative was not born out of obligation, but conviction. “Nobody asked us, because nobody had to. From our very inception, Janashakthi has stepped up where we have seen a need,” Schaffter said. He added: “Today, we are stepping up again—not alone, but in partnership with the highest charitable institution in the country, the President’s Fund.” This collaboration marks the first time a corporate entity has formally aligned itself with the President’s Fund in such a comprehensive and structured manner. While individuals and organisations have contributed financially in the past, Janashakthi’s approach goes further—committing to match funding for medical cases approved by the Fund, effectively doubling the resources available for life-saving treatments. At the heart of the initiative lies a simple yet powerful principle: every Sri Lankan child deserves equal access to healthcare. “Which child? Any child. Which province? Any province. Which race? Any race. Which religion? Any religion,” Schaffter emphasised. “They are all children of Sri Lanka—the next generation that must take their place in this nation.” The mechanism is deliberately streamlined. The President’s Fund, with its established network of medical experts and evaluative processes, will continue to vet applications and determine eligibility. Once approved, Janashakthi will mirror the financial support extended. Responding to Ths Island Financial Review, he added: “We are not here to reinvent the wheel,” Schaffter noted. “If the President’s Fund supports a case—whether treatment is in Sri Lanka or overseas—we will match it. If they give one, we give one. If they give two, we give two.” This alignment ensures efficiency, credibility, and speed—critical factors in medical emergencies where delays can cost lives. Beyond the operational framework, the initiative reflects a broader rethinking of corporate responsibility. Moving beyond conventional labels such as Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) or Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG), Janashakthi is reframing its philosophy i...
