The demand for our funding from women postgraduates is high and we are never able to support all the deserving applications that we receive. The amount of money we have available is the only limit to the number of grant we can offer. Our overheads are low, so money donated goes directly to women in financial need.
Ways you could help
Making a donation
All donations, small or large, are greatly appreciated. Perhaps you would like to give back what you received when you were studying to in turn help someone else?
Leave a legacy
A legacy can be a tribute to yourself or a loved one. We would be happy to discuss any legacy donation you might light to make.
Mentoring
You or your staff could offer mentoring to our grant holders during their postgraduate studies and continue supporting them as they enter their chosen careers.

“The award of a Foundation Grant was tremendously important to me. I self-funded my PhD, largely through the generosity of my parents, but I supplemented this through part-time work in the college bar and some teaching, and applied to each and every source of funding I could identify. The Foundation Grant was one of a number of awards I received in my third year. As well as the obvious assistance it provided, I took it as a vote of confidence in my abilities and potential at a time of considerable anxiety and self-doubt.”
