A special event was held on the 25th July 2010, at Duwegoda Sri Sudarmaramaya temple in Kaluthara district of Sri Lanka. The event was the redistribution of spectacles to the people in the area who could not afford adequate eye care. It was a huge success and about 250 people from the local district attended. This project is due to be continued as one of the charitable projects that Pragathi Cafe are involved in.
