Gifts in Wills: the Abraham Colfe Society
Your legacy, their future
A gift in your will to the Colfe’s Charitable Trust is one of the most impactful ways you can support the next generation of pupils at Colfe’s.
Colfe’s would not be the school it has become today without the generosity of past benefactors. Indeed, without the will of our Founder, Abraham Colfe, it would not be a school at all. Today, 370 years since our foundation, our independent but socially grounded ethos has established us as a centre of excellence and a force for good in south London.
Many Old Colfeians and friends of the School have wanted to play their part in investing the future of the school and its pupils from all backgrounds, and have already pledged to leave gifts in their wills.
As our way of saying thank you, legacy members are invited to join our Abraham Colfe Society. Society members receive a special gift as well as the chance to meet other donors and legacy intenders at regular events.
For a confidential conversation about how your gift can make a difference, please contact us.
Please read our brochure for more information about how your gift will make a difference.
