The Whitgift School Development & Alumni Office, established in March 2020, has been dedicated to nurturing our community outreach and supporting our bursary and community programs. Building on the momentum of the Whitgift For All campaign launched in 2022, which received enthusiastic support, we are thrilled to announce our second Giving Day. Following the success of our inaugural event, which garnered over 360 donors and raised more than £60,000, we aim to surpass these achievements this year.

Whitgift Gives is a 36-hour challenge focused on raising funds for our transformative Whitgift For All initiative. During this time, we invite the entire Whitgift community to come together, support local community efforts, and expand bursary support for deserving students.

Your generous support is crucial in making a significant impact on the educational opportunities in Croydon and transforming the lives of young people. This year, we have set an ambitious goal of 300 donors, and with your help, we can achieve this.

Together, we can enhance our impact on the lives of local young people and promote our mission to transform the community.

How you can help:

1. Donate. Contribute to our Giving Day. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference.

2. Spread the Word. Share our message and updates within your network.

3. Stay Engaged. Follow our progress throughout the 36 hours and visit our Donor Wall to see why others are giving and encourage more participation.
