“So learn that you may full and faultless learning gain, Then in obedience meet to lessons learnt remain”
Founded in 1987 as an alumni network, JHC Old Boys Association UK (JHC OBA UK) has evolved into a charitable organisation committed to advancing education and creating opportunities for children and young people in impoverished communities across Sri Lanka.
In line with its charitable objectives, JHC OBA UK supports educational development in disadvantaged regions, particularly in areas affected by poverty and the long-term impact of conflict. The association provides scholarships and grants to underprivileged children to help cover school fees, extra lessons, and essential educational expenses. It also supplies much-needed learning resources such as library books, computers, tablets, interactive touch screens, and other digital tools to enhance students’ learning experiences.
Additionally, JHC OBA UK contributes to improving the quality of education by funding additional teachers and organising supplementary classes in key subjects, ensuring students receive the academic support they need to succeed. Beyond the classroom, the association promotes the physical and emotional well-being of students by providing sports, play, and leisure equipment to encourage extracurricular and recreational development.
Through these initiatives, JHC OBA UK remains dedicated to empowering the next generation, fostering equal access to education, and supporting long-term positive change within underserved communities in Sri Lanka.
