Queens’ Giving Day

 

Giving Day is a 36-hour online fundraising drive, bringing together the College community from around the world –

alumni, parents, students, Fellows, staff and friends – to give back and to celebrate what they care about at Queens’. Each gift makes an even bigger impact, helping to unlock matched funding and challenges thanks to a group of generous donors.

This year’s Giving Day will be taking place on the 13th-14th of May and you can already join in and take part in the give early challenge by clicking below:

This year, Queens’ Giving Day is taking place on 13th-14th May 2026. 

This year's Giving Day priorities

The Unrestricted Fund

The Unrestricted Fund is vital to the financial security and long-term stability of Queens’. With academic fees providing less than 20% of total funding, we depend on the generosity of our community to ensure that our students continue to benefit from a truly world-class education. In today’s challenging economic climate, your support matters more than ever.

Student Accommodation

Following the successful refurbishment and decarbonisation of the Erasmus Building, we are now mid-way through our ambitious project to improve our largest off-site accommodation facility – Owlstone Croft. Once complete, Owlstone Croft will be an incredible hub for undergraduate and postgraduate students alike, with state-of-the-art facilities including a fully equipped gym and study centre. Our focus will then move to a planned schedule of exciting upgrades to our Silver Street site.

Alexander Crummell Scholarships

Our Alexander Crummell Scholarships open doors for talented students from non-traditional backgrounds for whom the cost of postgraduate study remains an insurmountable barrier. By supporting this fund, you can help us ensure that exceptional students, regardless of background, can pursue advanced study without financial constraint.

Since 2020, the generosity of donors has facilitated the creation of 22 cash spend-down Alexander Crummell Scholarships. Last year, we were thrilled to endow our first permanent Alexander Crummell Scholarship in STEM – a significant milestone in securing long-term support for exceptional students. This Giving Day, your gift will take us one step closer to completing the endowment of a second Alexander Crummell Scholarship specifically for the Arts & Humanities.
