Shamindra’s primary focus is on ensuring that no child grows up without the support of a nurturing family, through advocating for one child and one family at a time. Shamindra has developed a learning community that meets periodically, either regionally or within Sri Lanka, to strategize and work toward making this vision a reality. 

Shamindra and his team collaborate closely with church leaders in Sri Lanka. Their mission is to raise awareness among congregations and communities about the challenges of orphanhood, encouraging families within the church to consider adoption, fostering, or providing guardianship to vulnerable children. He believes in the transformative power of faith communities and mobilizes them to play a vital role in the lives of children who need nurturing families. 

Shamindra's passion for making a positive impact on the lives of children is complemented by his active involvement in teaching Sunday school at the local church he attends with his family. He enjoys a hands-on approach to contributing to the well-being and holistic development of children within his community. 

Shamindra commenced his career with Ernst & Young as a certified public accountant and has accumulated over 20 years of experience in both the private and public sectors. Having lived and worked in the USA for an extended period, he made a significant life choice in 2017 by returning to Sri Lanka with his family, with the goal of making a lasting impact on the lives of vulnerable children in his home country.
