Public Service Media (PSM), together with media partners including Voice, has deployed clearly marked fundboxes in 16 locations in Malé, Hulhumalé and Hulhumalé Phase 2 to support the nationwide telethon raising emergency aid for Sri Lanka.

The boxes are positioned at major public and commercial spots:


- TVM courtyard

- Velaanaage Ground Floor

- MPL North Harbour

- MPL Head Office

- Malé Fish Market

- Health Ministry building

- STELCO building

- MACL Office

Alongside the physical boxes, organisers have opened dedicated MVR and USD bank accounts under the name “Ceylon Aaeku Dhiveheen” and enabled QR donations via PayMV, with details broadcast on PSM TV during the live programme.

The telethon is taking place as Sri Lanka remains under a state of emergency following unprecedented rainfall, flooding and landslides that have displaced thousands and overwhelmed local response efforts.

Organisers emphasise that all contributions made through the boxes, bank transfers and digital channels will go directly towards life-saving humanitarian assistance, including food, shelter and essential supplies for affected Sri Lankan communities.
