Venue

Sithivinayagar Temple, Kumana

Description

The Lions Club of Batticaloa donated a water bowser to the Sevatkodiyon Organization of Sithivinayagar Temple, Kumana, to support pilgrims traveling to Kataragama—one of Sri Lanka’s most sacred multi-religious pilgrimage sites. During the annual Esala season (15th–24th July), around 700–1,000 pilgrims daily use the Kumana route, stopping at Sithivinayagar Temple before continuing on foot through a जंगल path to Kataragama. As this remote route lacks access to safe drinking water, the donation ensures the availability of clean water, supporting the health and well-being of pilgrims during their journey. This water bowser will remain permanently with the Sevatkodiyon Organization, serve the temple, community and foot pilgrims for many more years
