Giving Day is a chance for the whole Stortfordian community to come together - OS, Parents, and Staff, as well as Parents of OS and Former Staff - and support our fundraising towards the Stortfordian Bursary Fund.

Giving Day is all about fundraising for transformational bursaries. More details about our ambition for the Stortfordian Bursary Fund can be found at stortfordianfoundation.org/supportus or on the communications shared during the week.

We recognise that donors may prefer to give to help the College in a way that is meaningful for them. Please visit stortfordianfoundation.org/supportus to see the other funds or contact the Stortfordian Foundation team at foundation@bishopsstortfordcollege.org to discuss your gift preferences.

Unlike some other independent schools, Bishop's Stortford College does not benefit from an endowment, and the reality is that operating costs for the College are extensive, especially with the unforeseen expenditure of recent years. Fundraising helps us to do more with what we already have allocated for our good work. It also brings our wonderful community together to in supporting the College now and into the future.
