Goldsmiths' Annual Fund - creating opportunities together
A recipient says
“This fund has really made me sure we can do something professional that will really help further our career out of Goldsmiths, its preparation for the real world and it’s a wonderful opportunity!”
The Annual Fund shopping list:
A single donation of £4.95 will purchase a storage box as part of the preservation of an important collection of British performance poetry
3 donations of £15 will allow students to secure a stall at the Alternative Press Fair- allowing them to promote an anthology of poetry written by dyslexic students and staff
Two donations of £35 can purchase membership to the Haywood Art Gallery for local school-children as part of an outreach project led by Goldsmiths students
3 donations of £98 will allow a student group to register at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival
A single gift of £541 will print 750 copies of an anthology of students work of their best poetry, reviews and creative writing
A gift of £744 will purchase a new bench for the College Green
2 donations of £1000 will go towards purchasing a new minibus, providing a free and safe night bus service from the library to students’ homes
Every year gifts to the Annual Fund help us to provide life-changing opportunities for our students. Every year we start from zero. Every year we aim to raise more than the last.
Every year Alumni, staff and friends of the College make donations to the Annual Fund to:
- Supports student projects
- Improve the student experience
- Fund scholarships
Many of our Alumni recognise the transformative role that Goldsmiths has had in their lives and want to ‘give back’.
Give Now
The Annual Fund is the ideal way to reconnect with the Goldsmith’s community. Donations made to the Annual Fund help to support a wide range of student- and staff-led projects across the campus.
This year we were able to support 23 projects which included the staging of exhibitions and productions, provided financial aid for students in need, funded community-based art and sports programmes and provided staff and students with new facilities.
In the 2010-11 academic year we received donations from over 500 supporters to raise an impressive £45,362.23- an increase on last year’s total which was just over £36,000!
Now entering its third year, the Annual Fund total is set back to zero, and we begin to fundraise once again with the aim to raise even more funds for 2011-12.
