Starting March 2024, recipients will receive 24 monthly instalments of Rs. 6000 each. The list of selected students will soon be published on the official website (www.presidentsfund.gov.lk) and further details can be accessed through the President’s Fund official Facebook page (www.facebook.com/president.fund).

Upon receipt of the lists, 12 monthly instalments of Rs. 3000 each will be disbursed to the eligible students starting from May 2024.
