I am now a community innovator who received a scholarship at DreamSpace Academy in Kalladi! I made various attempts to achieve this position,

As a result of failing to get a good result as expected in the high school exam, I was confined to a room with a failed mind and an inability to think about the future!

Then I diligently developed industrial technology skills with the aim of strengthening myself and doing something for this community.

This scholarship was made available to me at DreamSpace Academy as a result of my keen interest in electronics technology and further development of my skills in it!

it is not a last, my goal is to develop innovations in solving problems in the community by developing skills in mechanics and electronics.

I’m Jathujan Mahendran from Batticaloa, Sri Lanka. I believe we can see a prosperous future world by changing children and teenagers.

Until 2015, I found myself in a backward position with an inferiority complex mentality. I was seen as a student with average talent in education as well. This environment kept me and my abilities locked.

The magical moment happened in 2015. Skills for life program (World Vision) changed my life and helped me to identify myself and my passion. It provided opportunities for me to express the talents I had buried within myself.

I’m a Change agent who works for Child and teenagers empowerment. I trained others in the same program that changed my life. I noticed more changes in them than I did in myself. Satisfaction occurred to me when I saw the students I had developed. Since then I have decided to serve others.

After that, I decided to join with DreamSpace Academy to achieve my goal and passion. I'm now working with them as a life-cycle candidate to launch the Ryver organisation.
