Wimala Elders Home is a highly reputed non-profit organization that provides a loving home for senior citizens who need love and care. Established in 1965, the home is situated in Kalutara. With facilities to provide permanent residence to 45 elders, we are the only government-approved elderly home in Sri Lanka to receive support and assistance for maintenance and medicine requirements from Canadian Help Age (Ottawa).

Founded by Mr.& Mrs. Jimmy Jayawardana & Mr. & Mrs. G J Wickramasinghe on a land donated by Mr.& Mrs. Jimmy Jayawardana, Mr.& Mrs. G J Wickramasinghe and Mr. & Mrs. Arthur Jayasinghe, Wimala Elders Home was a family managed charity organization in the past. Today the organization is managed by a committee to take this noble cause to the next level under the leadership of Mr. Ajith Jayawardana (son of Mr.Jimmy Jayawardana), who is the current president.

Starting with only 5 members, today the home has the capacity to serve 45 members comfortably. Having come a long way from the initial steps taken by our founders, we have expanded our services while ensuring our residents a happy and joyful life coupled with independence and dignity. With the aim of helping senior citizens who cannot support themselves financially and families who face the challenge of providing good care for their elderly family members, we strive to provide a happy home where they can spend the rest of their lives in peace and comfort.

With the help of an experienced team of caregivers, we ensure that all the requirements and needs of our elderly residents are being met. While the well being of our residents is assured, they also experience a sense of community that they can belong to and thrive in. At Wimala Elders Home, we strive to maintain a high-quality living standard for our residents with the help of our management committee and generous donors for which we are very grateful.
