It exists to help create a world where no one is left out. It does this by supporting business solutions for rural entrepreneurs and strengthening the environments in which they live so families can stand on their own two feet.
Its founders, a group of friends, were in war torn Sri Lanka on Boxing Day 2004 and witnessed first-hand the impact of the tsunami that hit on that day on already highly disadvantaged communities.
Compelled to do their part in rebuilding the lives of those who had lost everything, this small group of friends began a volunteer network, which later became Palmera –a for purpose development agency which has the community at the heart of everything it does.
