What are you looking for?

Your gift to Worcester is transformative and can open doors – from providing opportunities for young people who might have never considered Oxford, to funding fellowships which support the pathbreaking research of early-career academics.

"Thanks to my scholarship, I know how I will pay for my accommodation, food, and tuition here at Oxford. Taking that uncertainty away allows me to continue working on making contributions for our world. Your donations make real, tangible impacts in each one of our lives. We do not take your generosity lightly: thank you.”
Valerie Colunga Lorzano (2022, Global Governance & Diplomacy), Weidenfeld-Hoffman Trust Scholar

We value every contribution to Worcester and celebrate the individuals, trusts and groups that support us. We’re also committed to being transparent about how we use your donations and the impacts they have.

Every year, we publish our donor roll of honour in the College Record, while our Donor Impact Report outlines how your contributions have transformed College life.

We recognise the generosity of our donors through regular events in College. It’s always a pleasure to thank our supporters in person, so donors who make significant contributions are invited to our annual Donors’ Dinner. If you pledge a legacy to Worcester you will become a member of our 1714 Society. Named for the year of Worcester’s founding, the legacy society recognises the longstanding tradition of giving to the College, stretching back to the foundation of the College as the result of a £10,000 legacy from Sir Thomas Cookes. The 1714 Society regularly gathers for a series of special events with fellow legators.
