UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
The normal duration of university education is 4 years but sometimes depending on unexpected events taking place in Sri Lanka it could be 5 or even 6 years but the minimum period of sponsorship is 1 year. If you are able to and if you’re are happy with the student’s progress you may continue with the sponsorship.
The only condition that applies for the student is that a progress report should be submitted to the donor once in every 4 months and if he/she fails to fulfil this being the only request made by us then we will discontinue the sponsorship even if it is a 4-year grant, purely on disciplinary grounds. The student is informed and advised on this at the point of registering with us for sponsorship.
A file containing all the background information including the family details, bank account details, photographs and letter/s confirming the student’s enrollment with the University will be sent to you once the funds are remitted.
Monthly instalment – LKR 10,000/-
Total Sponsorship per annum – LKR 120,000/-
SCHOOL CHILDREN
A file containing all the background information including the family details, bank account details, photographs and a letter of certification from the School Principal of the student’s enrollment with the School will be sent to you once the funds are remitted.
Monthly instalment –
Up to Ordinary Level- LKR 5,000/-
Advanced Level – LKR 7,500/-
Payments could be made annually or for the whole sponsorship period online or via telegraphic transfers, by way of cheques written in favour of the Foundation of Goodness, bank drafts or direct deposits to the Foundation account.

The Foundation of Goodness is proud to now accept Australian donations through our partners at Doing Good Foundation who will provide tax-deductible receipts. The Doing Good Foundation a registered Australian charity with the required statuses to remit funds to charities not registered in Australia and to issue tax deductible receipts for donations over AUD$2. Please choose how to donate from the following three options:
To donate online using a bank card:
Visit the online platform https://foundationofgoodness.raisely.com/ to donate online
Receive an automated email confirmation and tax receipt
*Note, the online platform Raisely uses the third party payment gateway Stripe, which charges 1.4%+30c processing fee on Australian cards (1.75%+30c for AMEX and 2.9%+30c on international cards). For example, should you wish for FOG to receive a $100 donation, you will need to donate slightly more than $100, adjusted as per your payment method to cover these Stripe fees.
*Note, throughout the Raisely process a checkbox appears which does not cover this Stripe processing fee – the checkbox is asking you to cover Raisely’s website fees “Add $xx to help cover our fundraising costs” – note that this is not FOG or DGF’s fundraising costs. The Stripe processing fee can only be covered if you increase the donation amount.
To donate via EFT (direct bank transfer):
Email info@doinggoodrewards.com to request the bank account details
Complete bank transfer with description ‘FOG [your name]’
Receive a confirmation email with tax receipt within 7 days
*Note, that a direct bank transfer has less processing fees than using the online platform Raisely, however, please allow up to 7 days for manual processing to receive confirmation.
To donate via cheque:
Make payable to ‘Doing Good Rewards Foundation Ltd’
Post to below address and include a note with your name and email (tax receipt purposes)
Receive an email confirmation with your tax receipt within 7 days
Note: DGF does not charge an administration fee for collecting and transferring funds to FOG. Net funds are sent to FOG (less international transfer fee and any currency conversion losses). For example, should you wish for FOG to receive the full $100 of your $100 donation, you will need to donate slightly more to cover the transfer fees.
If your donation is to be allocated to a specific project, general project or for the “Goodness Endowment Trust”, please advise DGF at the below email at the time of donation. Doing Good Foundation is accountable to donors for remitting the funds to their selected charity and FOG is accountable to Australian donors for using those funds for legitimate beneficiaries.
