Empowering Others To Achieve Success
On the sponsorship side, e-mails have been sent to KPMG, PWC, Caltex, Shell, BHP Billiton and Dilmah. Energy Australia has already excused itself since it doesn’t finance or support programs outside Australia. It is also expected that 50% of the funding will be met through Sri – Lankan sources so that the project's groundwork can be staretd. Shanil is looking into securing the financing from Sri – Lankan sources and in that regards, he will be contacting Uni – Lever and Dilmah in Sri – Lanka. He will also be updating the project brief and power point slides based on the details provided by UOM.
