“I am from the Faculty of Science, University of Peradeniya, majoring in Mathematics, Computer Science, and Statistics. I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for awarding me the Alumni Association University of Peradeniya Studentship 2025 (AAUP-2025) through the Alumni Association of University of Peradeniya Queensland Chapter Incorporated.

I confirm that I have received the first instalment of Rs. 10,000.00 and am deeply thankful for this support. The financial assistance you are providing is particularly meaningful to me, as I lost my father when I was only five years old. Through my mother’s courageous efforts and guidance, I have come this far in my education. Your support truly means the world to us.

Since we are required to stay in boarding accommodation in the second year, this studentship significantly helps in covering my boarding fees, stationery, and travel expenses. I am also proud to share that I have obtained A’s and A+’s for my first-year results, and your support motivates me to continue working hard and striving for excellence.

Thank you once again for your kindness and generosity. I am determined to continue working hard in my studies and aspire to give back to others in the future, just as you have helped me today.”
