ABRAAR EDUCATION FOUNDATION BERUWALA (AEFB)
Established in 2012, AEFB is a non-profit charitable organization. We sought to address the issue of school dropouts in the areas of Maradana, Mahagoda, and Maligahena.
In 2012, a study revealed a concerning number of school dropouts in the Kalutara district, particularly in Beruwala, due to families’ financial struggles. Recognizing the urgency to change this situation and raise awareness about the importance of education, the “ABRAAR EDUCATION FOUNDATION” was born,
AEFB is supported by the local community in Beruwala, and in its early stages, it began providing scholarships to students. Due to limited funds, AEFB initially extended its scholarship program to four schools in Beruwala: 1) ZamRifai Hajiyar Muslim Maha Vidyalaya – Maligahena Beruwala, 2) Al-Fasiyyathul Nasriyya Muslim Girls’ School – Maradana Beruwala, 3) Al-Fasiyyathul Nasriyya Muslim Boys’ School – Maradana Beruwala, and 4) I.L.M. Samsudeen Viddiyalaya – Mahagoda Beruwala.
