Toastmasters came into being 30 years ago in Sri Lanka, with the formation of the Colombo Toastmasters club. Through a collaborative effort of clubs in India and Sri Lanka, District 82 was founded in Sri Lanka, and has since reformed into six districts- the latest of which is District 120.
Set up over 98 years ago as a non-profit organization, Toastmasters International focuses on developing public speaking and leadership skills through a worldwide network of clubs.

We treat all with dignity, welcome diverse perspectives, acknowledge all contributions, believe that all have positive intent, practice mutual accountability, and critique but never demean.
We strive to provide high-value, exceptional support by being responsive, attentive, and passionate in fulfilling our duties as individuals and as an organization to all.
