It is a wonderful opportunity for students to thank you for your support. Our students really value the conversations you have with them. They love hearing about your time at ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø, what you've gone on to do since leaving the University, and updating you on some of the exciting projects we are currently working on.
The number we call from is a ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø number starting with +44 (0) 118. Please note, calls may be monitored for training purposes.
We pay our students for their time, at an hourly rate - but 100% of any donations received go towards the projects you choose to support.
If you have any questions, or you would like to request a call from a student, please let us know by emailing giving@reading.ac.uk, ensuring you include your up-to-date contact details.
From time to time we may also write to you to tell you in more detail about current priorities that you can support.
