Give Now
Gifts of any size to the Colfe’s Charitable Trust Development Fund add up and make a lasting impact on our students. Our life-changing scholarship and pupil support programmes can only continue thanks to the generous gifts of our donors.
You can give online by following one of the links below and making a recurring or a one-off gift to one of our priority funds or donate an unrestricted gift to be used at the Headmaster’s discretion.
Alternatively, download a Colfe’s Donation Form and return it by to the Colfe’s Alumni Relations & Development Office or email it to development@colfes.com.
The Leatherseller Scholarship Programme
Gifts from hundreds of donors are combined with grants from the Leathersellers’ Foundation to support this flagship scholarship programme. For nearly 15 years this programme has supported talented pupils who would financially be unable to join our Sixth Form otherwise.
The Ukrainian Relief Fund
As the war in Ukraine began, and families fled the war-torn country for the UK, Colfe’s launched a special programme to offer free school places to children of Ukrainian families. Our aim is to continue supporting these pupils’ incidental costs for as long as is necessary.
Headmaster’s Discretionary Fund
Donations to this unrestricted fund enable us to remain flexible in an ever-changing world. The Headmaster’s Discretionary Fund is used to provide support wherever the need is the greatest, allowing us to address the most urgent requirements and emerging needs of the school. Support from our global community of alumni and friends means we can offer bursaries and short-term hardship funding to pupils whose financial circumstances have changed significantly since they joined the school.
Other ways to donate
- Cheques – Make a one-time gift to any of the School’s priorities by posting a cheque, payable to Colfe’s Charitable Trust.
- Standing orders – Ongoing and regular support ensures our students can be supported for the long-term. These can be made to the Colfe’s Charitable Trust via standing order.
- Gifts in your Will – Remembering Colfe’s in your Will can make a lasting impression on our pupils while also reducing your inheritance tax bill. For a confidential conversation about leaving a gift in your Will please contact Director of Development, Kathryn McNeill.
- Bespoke gifts – Donations of stock, gifts-in-kind and other unique ways to support us are also available. Please contact the Development Office for a confidential conversation.
