Choose your cause

Together, we can make a difference to the lives of students and impact on society locally, nationally and internationally.

Why support us

Giving isn’t just about making a donation – it’s about making a difference. Our goal is the same as that of our kind donors, to make a real difference to communities and the world around us. By supporting us you are supporting society as a whole.

Global impact

Every day we work on real-life issues, including climate change, cancer research, crime prevention and mental health. We are also supporting local and national economies through business partnerships, student talent and active social mobility.

But we couldn't achieve this without your generous support. There are a number of ways to give to NTU, whether it be through time, gifts in-kind, or money.

What part will you play?

Imagine being the person who makes a significant difference to the life of a student from a disadvantaged background. The person who enables them to be the best that they can be. The person who supports them through university and helps them to secure opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach.

You could support our scientists, help their research breakthrough and be part of the solution to some of the biggest challenges our society faces today.

Our projects unite and enable people and communities to do extraordinary things.

The Student Success Endowment

An initiative that will deliver real and meaningful social transformation, and we invite you to be a part of it.

You can join us on the journey of discovery as we seek new and novel approaches to increase our knowledge and awareness of how these diseases occur and how we can treat them.

Please note that NTU is committed to fundraising for existing causes – you can find information on these causes here. We regret that we are therefore unable to provide support to fundraisers who are raising money for other charities, to avoid conflict of interest with our own activities.

Fundraising promise

All our activities adhere to the Fundraising Code of Practice, ensuring that every donation you make is put to the best possible use. Find out more.
