Welcome to the Cheltenham Ladies' College 170th Anniversary Campaign, celebrating our historic milestone birthday.
As we honour our rich heritage and look forward to the future, we invite you to join us by contributing to projects aligned with the College's five strategic aims.
From sustainability initiatives to an enhanced co-curricular offering and enriched academic spaces, our 170th Anniversary Campaign will help continue to ensure Cheltenham Ladies' College is a place for our entire community to flourish in.
For our 170th campaign, we're asking you to support us achieve the goals of our strategic pillars. For further information about what we want to achieve under each of the five pillars, please click below.
Your generous contributions will help us continue to provide an exceptional education and foster an inspiring environment for girls aged 11-18. Whether you choose to make a single donation or be a part of the 170 for 170 campaign celebrating regular gifts, together, as a community, we can build on our proud history and ensure that future generations of students thrive, excel and in turn enrich their communities.
From funding bursaries and capital projects to supporting teenage mental health and empowering students to build a green powered car, we’ve achieved a lot in recent years thanks to your generous donations.
Here’s just a few of the specific projects your money could support this year:
Your support is crucial in making the 170th Anniversary Campaign a success, and there are several ways you can contribute.
Additionally, you can help by spreading the word about our campaign or donating your time or expertise to College.
Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a significant impact on the lives of current and future students at Cheltenham Ladies' College.
Alongside our 170th Anniversary Campaign and celebrations, we are also running “170 for 170”, a campaign, with the aim of encouraging 170 donors to begin regular gifts to College.
By coming together as a community and generously committing to a regular gift, of any affordable amount, we can make a difference.
