We are a non-profit, non-government, religiously and politically independent organization.
Learning for Life - S.R.C. was born in 2012 as a local NGO in sri Lanka.
The Organization was established and incorporated under ‘Section 34 of the Companies Act, No.07 of 2007’ in 2013 and operates as a registered not-for profit organization in Sri Lanka.
The abbreviations ‘S.R.C.’ stands for ‘Supporting the Rights of the Child’; which is our primary work-frame as a ‘child centered’ and ‘child focused’, community development organization based on ‘Principles of United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC)’.
In the beginning, name of the organization was ‘Learning for Life - S.F.C.S.L.’ The abbreviations ‘S.F.C.S.L.’ stand for ‘Swedish Friends of Children in Sri Lanka’. But later the name was changed to ‘Learning for Life - S.R.C.’ due to some legal requirements in Sri Lanka

Why was a part of the name from Swedish organization in the beginning?
Initiatives to establish this Organization were taken by a Swedish organization called ‘Sri Lankas Barns Vänner’ (also known as ‘Swedish Friends of Children in Sri Lanka’) together with a Sri Lankan person.
Since 1980, S.L.B.V. has been working in Sri Lanka through partnerships with many local organizations. LFL-SRC and SLBV are blood bounded partners since the beginning and we look forward to serve vulnerable and marginalized children and their families in Sri Lanka for more years ahead...
