Donate to our Student Financial Aid

A student's biggest concern should be making it to class on time – not worrying about how to afford their next meal

Unexpected financial crises can overwhelm even the most careful students. A sudden family crisis, an unexpected car repair, or the loss of a crucial part-time job can quickly throw a student’s life into turmoil. The burden of unpaid bills, empty cupboards, or lack of essential transport can leave students drowning under the strain, with their studies suffering as a result.   

When financial pressures threaten to pull students under, the Student Financial Aid Fund provides a crucial safety net, offering vital financial support to keep them on course.  

Your generosity can provide these students with a lifeline. This could mean the difference between abandoning their degree or achieving their dreams. 

Whether you make a one-off or monthly donation, your support will help the people who’ll change the world tomorrow, today. 

A gift of:  

  • £50 feeds a student for a week, banishing hunger and fuelling their focus.
  • £175 keeps the darkness at bay and warms their home.
  • £650 covers a month’s rent, ensuring they can keep a roof over their head.
