Janavijaya Foundation (JVF) is a non-profit organization that was founded by the late-venerable Gangodawila Soma Thero to encourage people to develop a life style based on famous five precepts inherited by Asian faith traditions. After the sudden demise of the founder the JVF continues its services under the leadership of Venerable Maharagama Dhammasiri Maha Thero, President, Washington Buddhist Vihara, USA. JVF is committed to operate as an organization which provides welfare to the needy as a way of practice of loving kindness towards the world.
