President's Fund Now Online

COLOMBO (News 1st) - All services of the President's Fund will now be available online starting today, allowing the public to access its full range of benefits from any part of the island. 

Since February 7th, applications for medical assistance from the President's Fund have been accepted through all Divisional Secretariats across the country. 

According to the President's Media Division, this initiative has been highly successful, prompting the government to decentralize all other services of the Fund in the same manner.

As a result, the public can now apply online through their respective Divisional Secretariats for various programs, including:

Poverty alleviation subsidies

Academic scholarships

Support for children demonstrating academic Excellence

Assistance for individuals with special needs

Relief for children affected by wild elephant attacks

Evaluation for individuals who have rendered national service
