Child of a Prisoner at the Welikade Prisons, Colombo 9.
I wish to subscribe towards the education of a child/children of a Prisoner/s.
- That I have to pay Rs 24,000/- each year until the child completes Year 13. However I am under no obligation to continue this scholarship, but in case I wish to withdraw, I will inform the “Friends of Prisoners Children” so they find another sponsor for the child.
- I will receive an official receipt for my payments, plus a photograph of the student and a letter from him/her with some details. On some occasions it may be that we have to change the child given to you for reasons: He/she has failed the Year 11 examination, or the father has been released from prison.
- At the beginning of each year I can expect a letter from my sponsored child, and an evaluation of the student’s progress in school from the Principal. Any further contact, the sponsor may wish to have is encouraged only through the organization.
Cheques must be drawn in favour of “Friends of Prisoners’ Children” and crossed A/c Payee.
OR You may direct deposit the sponsorship amount to our bank and send us the copy of the deposit slip.
