Support Us
Support us to tackle the big issues and provide learning and research opportunities to people from all backgrounds.

The School of Divinity is home to a diverse community of academics and students. We are connected by our curiosity in the world and our fascination in how people’s beliefs shape their lives. Our work is critical to understanding humanity’s history, its present, and to navigating our complex world.
We want to maintain a world-class environment for learning and research, make sure our research can have a real-world impact, and that our educational opportunities are accessible to people from all backgrounds. To do this we need support from our community of alumni and friends.

Fundraise for us
Is there a challenge you’ve always wanted to take on or an event you’d like to organise with your former Divinity classmates? You could organise your own fundraiser for the School. The School will celebrate its 175th anniversary in 2021, so it could be the perfect opportunity to raise money with a fun challenge or activity, as a group or as an individual.
