Donations
It is heartening to see this kind of response.
To be certain,
Transfer funds,via local contacts,[preferably via the local alumni group,and local bank contacts]
Define the uses as intended by the donor.
I have seen many examples of the funds not being used or the gift,not used properly[observed much of this post tsunami]
Do not remain anonymous[unless absolutely necessary]
This leaves room or abuse,
As is common in Lanka and the rest of the world.
It is not confined to Lanka or the east,
Money,,donations,tend to create room for
Corruption and abuse.
Create a path for proper checks and balances.
