We are excited to announce that St Margaret’s has been chosen to take part in The Big Give’s Women & Girls Match Fund 2025, taking place from 8–15 October.
For one week only, every £1 donated will be doubled at no extra cost, instantly increasing the power of your support. We have the opportunity to unlock £5,000 in match funding, meaning together we can raise £10,000 for our Bursary and Programme. Every donation, whatever the size, will go twice as far in providing life-changing bursaries to talented girls who, without bursary support, would not have the opportunity to benefit from a St Margaret’s education.
Donate between 8–15 October via The Big Give campaign page and your gift (up to £5,000) will be matched. When combined with match funding and Gift Aid, your £50 becomes £112.50 – turning one act of generosity into more than double the support for our bursary pupils.
Your donation | Big Give match funding | Plus Gift Aid | Total gift for St Margaret’s |
£25 | £25 | £6.25 | £56.25 |
£50 | £50 | £12.50 | £112.50 |
£100 | £100 | £25 | £225 |
£250 | £250 | £62.50 | £562.50 |
£500 | £500 | £125 | £1,125 |
Spread the word by sharing the campaign with friends and family to help us reach our target of £10,000.
A bursary to attend St Margaret’s removes the financial barrier to an education designed specifically for girls. It opens the door to a rich curriculum, a range of extra-curricular opportunities, and an environment where girls are empowered to thrive. With a track record of academic excellence, success in STEM, small class sizes and a close community where each girl is known and supported, we provide an education that builds confidence, potential and success.
“Thanks to your generosity, I have been able to enjoy the opportunities St Margaret’s has been able to offer me, which have exceeded all my expectations. Classes are not only exam-focused but enriching and designed to push us to achieve our best. Thank you for believing in me and supporting me.” Bursary pupil 2025
Through this campaign, we aim to raise a total of £10,000 – but we can only do it with your help. To unlock the full £5,000 in match funding, we must raise £5,000 in online donations during campaign week.
Every pound you give between 8–15 October will be doubled, turning your support into twice the opportunity for girls to access a St Margaret’s education.
Make your gift on our campaign page between 8–15 October and help us unlock the full £10,000!
