About this event

Sri Lanka is experiencing the worst economic crisis in decades.

Millions are impacted by shortages of food, fuel, electricity, clean drinking water and medicines.

According to UNICEF, nearly one in two children in Sri Lanka now require some form of emergency assistance, including nutrition, healthcare, clean drinking water, education, and mental health services.

Peter Kuruvita and Lord & Lion, in support of UNICEF, are hosting a five-course fundraising dinner to support 1.7 million Sri Lankan children in need.

Join us in showing your ‘Love for Sri Lanka’ on Tuesday 23 August from 6.30pm at the Sofitel Sydney Wentworth.

You will be treated to a Sri Lankan feast curated by Peter Kuruvita and entertainment from Logie-award winning Sri Lankan Australian comedian Dilruk Jayasinha, Phil Burton from Human Nature and Sri Lanka’s Kandyan dancers.

Proceeds from the event will go towards the work of UNICEF in Sri Lanka.

UNICEF Australia

UNICEF is the United Nations Children's Fund, a leading global humanitarian and development agency that works to uphold the rights of every child.

UNICEF was established in the aftermath of World War II to help children whose lives and futures were at risk - no matter what country they were from. More than 70 years later, UNICEF has saved more children's lives than any other organisation in over 190 countries.

From the most remote island communities to the heart of war-torn conflict zones, every child has the right to survival, education, health care, shelter, nutrition, safe water and protection from war and disaster. That's why UNICEF stands up as a global champion for children's rights.
