In Sri Lanka, Advanced Level (A/L) education is one of the most decisive moments in a student’s life. It determines whether they enter university, secure a better future, or are forced to abandon their dreams. In Atchuvely, this challenge is magnified by poverty. Many students have the ability — but not the means — to continue their studies.
The AKAS Foundation is proud to support A/L students in two key schools: Atchuvely Central College Saraswathy Vidyasalai
With just Rs. 3,000 per month (around €10 or £9), you can support an A/L student’s education. It may seem like a small amount from where you live now — whether you're in Europe, the US, Canada, or beyond — but back home, it’s life-changing. This monthly support covers tuition fees and essential learning materials, giving a determined student the chance to stay in school, study hard, and take that crucial step toward higher education.
We believe no child should have to give up on their dreams because of poverty. But we can’t do this alone. Your support — no matter how small — helps shape a future, and keeps alive the hopes of a young student who simply wants a fair chance.
A/L is a critical stage in a Sri Lankan student’s life — it can determine their access to university and future career.
Many students in Atchuvelly can’t afford private tuition, which is essential to succeed in A/L exams.
With just Rs. 3,000 per month (around €10 or £9), you can sponsor a student’s tuition and study materials.
Your small contribution can have a life-changing impact, helping a student stay in school and stay focused.
Former students from Atchuvelly now living abroad are leading the way in giving back — and you can too.
Every donation helps close the education gap between students with and without financial support.
We aim to support as many A/L students as possible, but we need your help to reach more children each year.
Education is the most powerful investment — sponsor a student today and be part of their success story.
“Without the AKAS Foundation, I wouldn’t have made it through my A/L exams. The monthly support meant I could focus on my studies without worrying about money. Today, I’m in university — and it all started with that Rs. 3,000 a month.”
If Atchuvely was your beginning, you’ll remember the challenges — the simple classrooms, the determined students, and families doing their best with so little. Now, you have the chance to give back and help change the story for the next generation.
