Where does your donation go?

Your gift to the College will help our current and future residents have a better university experience, enabling St George’s College to continue to be the best it can be for many decades to come.

Annual Giving

Annual Giving is St George’s yearly fundraising program that invites our community to support key College initiatives.

Currently, Annual Giving is raising funds for Centenary Appeal scholarships which commemorate each of the 14 young Georgians who died in service during the Second World War. The first two scholarships, in memory of Ted Parsons (1937) and Syd Rowe (1934), were awarded in March 2024. Ted and Syd’s stories can be found here.

This year, we are raising funds towards a scholarship in memory of Guy Ward (1940). On 11th August 1943, Guy was the pilot of a Halifax bomber on his tenth operational flight over Germany when the aircraft was shot down over Nuremburg, some time after midnight.  He was last seen by the two surviving members of his crew, still in his machine, before they baled out. The aircraft crashed at Ramsen, Germany - six of the eight crew were killed, including Guy, who was only 21 years old. More of Guy’s moving story can be found here.

100 TIL 100

In 2031, our College will turn 100. Please consider becoming a member of the $100 ‘TIL 100 Annual Giving Program. In other words – a gift of $100 each year until the College’s Centenary in 2031. Major donors will always make a tremendous difference. However, there is power in many small gifts. Together, we can also make a great impact. If you would like further information on our $100 ‘TIL 100 program, get in touch with us here.

Your Support

Thank you for considering supporting our Annual Giving initiative. Your contribution will help us achieve our Centenary goals by 2031 and provide life-changing opportunities for students who, without your support, will not otherwise be able to attend or benefit from College.

The College receives no state or federal government support, so we rely on your generosity to secure the long-term future of the College and residents to come.

We encourage you to learn more about Guy Ward (1940), and contact us if you are willing and interested in making a donation. Thank you again.
