WHAT’S IN
A NAME?
These trees have seen too much, and still they serve.
The Palmera is a tree that grows throughout Sri Lanka. Every part of the tree serves those around it: the bark for fuel, the timber for building, the leaves for shelter, and the fruit for food.
It inspires us to serve completely.
