What is Oxford Saïd Giving Day?

Giving Day is an annual 36-hour fundraising marathon where our community comes together to celebrate and support the individuals that make Oxford Saïd special. The 13th and 14th June 2023 is Oxford Saïd’s fifth Giving Day.

What makes a Giving Day different from any other day?

Participation is crucial on Giving Day and gifts of every size have a huge impact on the School. Giving Day is the one day of the year where your gift can go even further too, thanks to the generosity of our match funders. Gifts over £150 or $200 will also be recognised on the Giving Day Roll of Honour and all gifts (unless you choose to remain anonymous) will appear on the Donor Wall.

What does Giving Day raise money for?

Giving Day 2023 is supporting the Rewley Fund which powers the Rewley Scholarship programme. With the help of our community on Giving Day, the School can offer more Rewley Scholarships which attract the brightest and best candidates to Oxford Saïd .
