Serendib Flour Mills continued its dedication to rural communities by offering 100 elderly farmers from remote areas the chance to experience the Sacred Sri Dalada Perahera in Kandy. On 26 August 2026, the fifth edition of Serendib Uththama Dalada brought together participants from Mahalakotuwa, Elahera, and Attanakadawala, many of whom had devoted their lives to agriculture.
This initiative allowed the elders to embark on a spiritually significant journey, witnessing a revered tradition of Sri Lanka. The campaign, "Nourishing the hearts of elderly parents with spiritual merits, who once nourished a generation," highlighted the lifelong contributions and sacrifices of farming mothers and fathers. Serendib Flour Mills provided transportation, accommodation at the Sri Dalada Maligawa, and VIP seating for the participants to fully immerse themselves in the grandeur of the Dalada Perahera.
