Specific Guidance on Fundraising for the Crisis in the Middle East
Please see the following document which outlines specific guidance for students wishing to fundraise for causes related to the ongoing crisis in the Middle East.
Israel and Gaza Conflict: Fundraising Guidance - updated April 2024You 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.
