Nottingham Ambition Giving Day is a 36-hour online fundraising challenge commencing 8am BST on Tuesday 14 June 2022 and running until 8pm BST on Wednesday 15 June 2022. It’s a chance for the University of Nottingham community to come together and support each other by giving to one of our four causes and/or sharing our messages via alumni networks. Every gift is a great way to invest in our future.
On June 14 1922, the Trent Building Foundation Stone was lain with much fanfare and ceremony. The promise and hope of education were shared with many generous gifts made to help with the establishment of the new University College. If you’d like to know more please contact supportus@nottingham.ac.uk.
It’s a chance for us to come together and celebrate some of the things that make UoN special. We’re proud of our past and ambitious for our future. We hope you are too! By becoming an Ambassador you can help share our Day with alumni around the world: some won’t be aware of our fundraising priorities and won’t know until a peer shares a message with them via social media. By donating to the Giving Day you’ll be confirming to others that it’s a worthwhile cause. Also, you’ll be unlocking thousands of pounds of larger gifts! Find out more on our challenge pages.
You can donate to any one of our four causes by clicking on the ‘Donate’ button and/or sign up to be a Giving Day Ambassador on the ‘Ambassador’ page. If there is another way you’d like to get involved please contact us on supportus@nottingham.ac.uk or by calling +44 (0)115 823 2805.

If you give online through the form on the Nottingham Ambition Giving Day website, your gift will automatically be added to the totals immediately. If you choose to donate in another way (by post referencing 'Nottingham Ambition Giving Day' for example), your gift will be added manually.
All gifts given before we reach £80,000 will be doubled thanks to a generous donation from an alumnus of the University.
You can choose where your funds go to using the drop-down list on the cause page or donation form. You can give to 'Cascade: student-led projects', 'Medical research at the University of Nottingham'. 'Mental health support at the Students' Union' or 'Scholarships for disadvantaged students'. If would prefer to give to another area of the University, email us at supportus@nottingham.ac.uk and we’d love to include your support in our Day.
