#GivingTuesday

A huge thank you to everyone who took part in last week’s #GivingTuesday!

Last week, as part of the global #GivingTuesday event, six Nuffield student volunteers called Alumni to reconnect and to raise funds for graduate scholarships.

The event was part of a global day of giving, and our students contacted alumni across Asia, Australia and Europe, as well as in North, Central, and South America over a period of 24 hours.

44% pledged a donation to the Graduate Scholarship Fund. Combined with matched funding from the College and University, the total raised so far from this short campaign is an amazing £7,877.

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who picked up the phone to speak to us.

If we missed you on Tuesday, but you would like to donate to the Graduate Scholarship Fund, you can still donate by following the links below:
