The Telephone Campaign is a fantastic way for us to stay connected with our alumni and is an essential part of our regular giving programme. The support we receive ensures we can continue to support our students year after year.

This year's Telephone Campaign will take place between 28 October and 19 November 2023. 

For our campaign this year, we will be contacting our alumni, like you to offer an opportunity to support The Ignite Fund. 

The Ignite Fund has gone on to support over 700 Westminster students since 2016. Earlier this year we provided funding to over 120 students, making it the highest number of students supported in a single round to date.

We have great ambitions to help many more students over the coming months and years, but we cannot do it without your support. With the number of applications far exceeding the funding available, the Telephone Campaign provides a springboard to ensure we can provide funding to the exceptionally talented students at Westminster. It’s in our DNA, it’s what we do best.

Below is a video recap of our Ignite Fund celebration event, which took place earlier this year.

 

As well as raising crucial funds, our team of dedicated student callers would be delighted to find out about your time at Westminster and update you on developments at the University. Plus, they'll let you know about the ever-growing list of benefits and opportunities available to you as an alumnus.

We are also delighted to announce that the Quintin Hogg Trust has generously agreed to match donations to the Ignite Fund pound for pound, making a tremendous difference as we try to support students through this period of uncertainty.

Any gift you make to the Ignite Fund during the campaign will be worth double to a student, at no extra cost to you. 

We hope you can help our talented and ambitious students continue with their studies, gain additional skills and go on to realise their potential.

Maximising alumni support is essential for the campaign, as the more donations we receive, the more students who can benefit from the funding. Additionally, increased alumni support positively influences our success in raising funds externally. Even modest monthly or single donations are critical to Westminster's broader fundraising efforts.

If you would like to request a call this November, please let us know your up-to-date contact details by emailing [email protected].
