¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Annual Fund raises over £500,000

21 July 2011

For the third year running ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº's Annual Fund has generated over £500,000 in income, which each year is used to support scholarships,Ìýresearch and the work of departments across ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº.

Student callers A key part of this success is the role of current ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº students who phone ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº alumni to encourage them to give back to their alma mater. The most recent campaign finished at the end of last week and we saw a remarkable level of warmth and willingness to give from our 2009 graduates - the first cohort to enter ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº under the new variable fees introduced in 2006.

Over the past three years it has been graduates of the last five years who have shown a growing willingness to give back - appreciating the quality of the education and the experience they received at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº. Perhaps even more remarkable during the current calling campaign were the two gifts members of the calling team chose to make - without any prompting from Development Office staff!

In addition to encouraging more alumni to support ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº the calling campaign also provides a connection between current and former students - enabling them to share their experiences of ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº.
