Giving Day is NOW.

Welcome to our seventh Giving Day at Wadham. In the four centuries since our foundation, Wadham has stood for curiosity, bold thinking, inclusivity and opportunity. This year we will be celebrating how our students, Fellows and alumni are living out these values by changing the world around them and building a sustainable future for all. The vital funds we raise will ensure that we can continue to offer an education that is uniquely intellectually stretching and genuinely life-changing.

It starts with you. By supporting Wadham, you sustain the values that make this College distinctive and help protect the education that shapes lives. This Giving Day you can unlock exclusive match funding by making your gift, and so I hope you will join hundreds of your fellow alumni in donating this June.

Let's catch up with our kitchen and catering team, who calculated that they cycle approx 93 miles per week between them. Here they are, putting those miles to work as they bravely traverse the Grand Canyon!
