Empowering Sri Lankan Women and Girl Children

Project Forte

Project Forte was started in the year 2016 with the aim of empowering Sri Lankan women and girl children. We want to educate females of their potential and the avenues available to them and aspire them to rise against gender based violence and discrimination. We believe that uplifting a woman's life builds a nation's future.
