Pahansila is a Scholarship project that helps to educate needy Sri Lanka students. The goal of this project is to inculcate the concept of free education in Sri Lanka and help talented students in low-income Sri Lankan families to excel in studies, sports, and extra curricular activities, enabling them to become good citizens and serve the nation. At present, over 120 needy Sri Lankan students ranging from Grade 1 to undergraduate level, selected from 8 provinces are assisted through Pahansila. We disburse more than Rs.125,000 (US$1,000) monthly through 3 Pahansila chapters. Scholarship are provided by 70 donors living in 5 countries. There are about 54 volunteers helping Pahansila. |
