Actor Karunaas has exemplified his social
deeds by funding the higher education
of 135 Srilankan Tamil refugees after
selecting meritorious students amongst
them. These students, pursuing MBA and
MCA in different colleges in Chennai,
Madurai, Dindigul and Kovai, had visited
Karunaas in Chennai during Diwali celebrations.
They expressed their gratitude and promised
to help more of such needy students once
their education is complete and placed
in good jobs. That was a touching gesture
of their desire to repay what they had
received.
Eezha Nehru, the coordinator of the Srilankan
Tamil refugees, substantiated further
that the Government supported the students
till the Higher secondary level but beyond
that even the ones with distinction were
not able to study further. That is when
Karunaas extended his hands voluntarily
to brighten these students' future.
