The loyalty and generosity of our alumni and friends enables St Catherine’s to be a world-class academic institution, with the power to transform its students’ lives and inspire great contributions to our society.

Donations enable us to continue to offer a world class education to all students, regardless of background, honouring our founding ethos. Each year thanks to the generosity of our alumni and friends, we are able to financially support 1 in 5 of our undergraduates and award 35 postgraduate scholarships and welcome over 4,000 school pupils to outreach events. Your support also enables us to maintain the tutorial system, with over 100 Tutors and Lecturers, and to restore, maintain and enhance our Grade 1 listed buildings and grounds.

In this section of the website you can learn more about our funding priorities, including the re-opening of our iconic Wolfson Library, how to make a single or regular tax-efficient gift (including FAQs), and view our most recent legacy brochure.

Get Involved

St Catherine’s is always looking for ways to involve our alumni. Whilst financial support for the College’s fundraising priorities is vital, you may also be able to help by giving your time or practical assistance. This might be through hosting an event, writing articles for The Year, or offering careers advice and mentoring to our students.
