Recurring Gifts

Another way to support Somerville is through a regular gift via direct debit. This particularly helps us with running expenses such as the cost of subsidising our food to ensure it remains affordable for all students, and continuing to deliver world-class teaching through the tutorial system. If you would like to make a regular gift to Somerville, please complete the form here.

Matched Gifts

Have you considered matched giving? Many organisations and businesses today have agreed to match the donations made by their employees to worthy causes. Please contact your Human Resources department to find out if they operate a matching gift scheme. In most cases, the company will match your donation pound for pound up to a specific level; a handful of organisations even double-match. If your employer does participate in the scheme, they will be able to give you a form to fill in confirming the gift you have made, which you can then send to us confirming receipt of the gift.

Thank you for your support. Whatever the reason, whatever the scale, we will ensure that any gift you make to Somerville is used correctly: in maintaining the excellence of our teaching, the quality of our learning and the warmth of our student experience.
