In 2019, Sharuja recognised that many orphanages and homes for the elders on the East coast of Sri Lanka received very little financial support - and she wanted to do something about it. With commitment and enthusiasm, she started making jewellery using thread and up-cycled fabrics. Although an accountant by training, she now works full time in her own business creating a stunning range of jewellery. Part of the proceeds continue to support the homes and projects that she is so passionate about.
