Project Name:
Colombo University 1974 Batch Scholarships (RAOAF)

Country:
Sri Lanka

Description:
To Provide financial Assistance Undergraduates from poor families to study at the University of Colombo as we believe that these students will bring about change to their families and there villages. The project is done with the involvement of the University of Colombo Sri Lanka. The project started three years ago with a small amount of funds and at the moment has been supporting six students providing around A$26 a month. A more realistic amount is about A$50 a month to provide a reasonable amount to allow the undergraduates have appropriate resources required for the studies and accommodation. All the current recipients parents have not got the ability to provide money to assist their children.

Tax Deductibility:
