There's only one hour left of our 2026 Giving Day! The response from the St Hilda's community today has been incredible, and we're so grateful to everyone who has donated, shared a memory, or helped spread the word.

To help us finish Giving Day as strongly as possible, an incredibly generous donor has agreed to double all gifts made in this final hour.

If you've been thinking about getting involved, now is the perfect time. Your gift will have twice the impact, helping us reach our Giving Day goals and ensuring future generations of Hilda's students can benefit from the opportunities, support and sense of community that make St Hilda's so special.

Make your gift now before the hour is up! Follow the link in our About section.

Watch Amy's story!
As the first in her family to attend university, Amy's path to Oxford was not always straightforward. Receiving the Medical Sciences Graduate School Scholarship helped make postgraduate study possible, easing financial pressures and allowing her to focus on her research and make the most of the opportunities available at Oxford.

Scholarships like Amy's are made possible through the generosity of donors. They help ensure that talented students can pursue their ambitions regardless of their financial circumstances.

This Giving Day, your support can help future students follow in Amy's footsteps. Follow the link in the comments.

It wouldn't be Giving Day without a Rowathon! Our staff put up a good fight in the students vs staff competition (with a strong side showing up from ) but 2nd year Geography student Jonathan Sullivan was the clear winner!

Did you live in Garden Building? We'd love to hear your memories. 🌿

This Giving Day, we're not only raising support for students today - we're also helping to secure the future of the Garden Building through our restoration project, ensuring we can continue to provide sustainable and affordable accommodation for St Hilda's undergraduates for generations to come.

As part of the project, we're creating a Garden Building Memory Wall and inviting alumnae around the world to share their stories and photos from their time there.

You don't need to make a gift to take part, though they are hugely appreciated! Your memories are an important part of St Hilda's story.

If you'd also like to support the Garden Building Restoration project and other Giving Day priorities with a donation, every gift will make a difference.

Share your memories and photos, see stories from fellow alumnae, and support Giving Day by following the link in the comments.
