You may be familiar with the term RAG, which stands for Raising and Giving. Whilst historically RAG has been the the term we used, and that is used across Universities and Students' Unions to discuss fundraising activity, we've chosen to move towards raising money being referred to as fundraising instead, to enable it to be universally recognised across the student body.
