Fundraising success continues with College’s second Giving Day

“Yet again our Giving Day donations surpassed our most extreme expectations,” says Wolfson’s President, Professor Dame Ijeoma Uchegbu. 

“A whopping 444 donors gave generously to the College. With these funds we will be able to enhance the student experience in many, many ways. A huge thank you to all of our generous donors.”

The incredible response to last year's event—coupled with the success of this year's Giving Day, and the continued commitment of alumni, staff, Fellows and other members of the College from around the world—speaks to Wolfson's enduring impact, whether on those currently at the College or those who saw it through its earliest years.

Wolfson alumni, amongst others, took the time to include messages of support alongside their donations:

“With a total of £165,000 raised, this year’s Giving Day once again demonstrated how much Wolfson means to so many people around the world,” says Wolfson’s Development Director, Simon Crookall. “Thank you for your support, and for helping us continue to Ring True!”
