Annual Fund2015-2016

Development OfficeKINGHAM HILL SCHOOL

Why is it important?Kingham Hill is not able to achieve all of its goals from fee income alone. Whilst some planned developments can be financed from the within the capital budget, the Development Office provides essential support in funding enhanced facilities.

The Annual Fund provides extra equipment for use in a wide variety of areas of school life, including academic provision, sports, and extra-curricular activities. These additional resources help to ensure that Kingham Hill is able to provide the best possible, fully-rounded education to all the pupils.

Who should give and how much?You may give whatever you wish. Anyone – Hillians, parents, grandparents, friends, governors, staff past and present are all invited to support Kingham Hill School on a regular basis. Participation is the key, regardless of the size of your gift, and together you can make a real difference to what can be achieved.

How can I give?Gifts can be one-off or spread over the year through standing order payments. If you are a UK taxpayer, please ensure that you complete the gift aid declaration

to enable us to claim the tax relief and make your gift go even further in support of the School.

If you are a US taxpayer and would like to make a tax efficient gift to the School, this can now be done via the British Schools and Universities Foundation. Please contact the Development Office for more details.

BursariesThe School was founded to provide a home to those with a boarding need. We are proud to honour the Founder’s vision and we offer a high proportion of bursaries to those who otherwise would not be able afford a Kingham education.

At the heart of the school’s 2020 Vision is the aim to increase the number of bursaries that we can offer to children who really need the stability, support and outstanding pastoral care that Kingham Hill School can provide. However, we are constrained by a limited amount of funds that are available for distribution, meaning that that we are unable to help in some cases to the level that is needed.

Where the School needs it mostIn order for our pupils to have the very greatest preparation for life and the best opportunities when they are at Kingham Hill School, we need to ensure they have access to the right resources and facilities.

Donations in this category could go to extend our musical instrument programme, be put towards sport equipment, or wherever the School needs it most.

Thank you to all those who supported the Annual Fund last year.

Since the launch of the fund in 2013, over £15,000 has been raised

for school projects and bursaries and we hope that we will build on our

success this year.

This leaflet is sent to all members of the Kingham

Hill community outlining ways to support the School

through modest, regular gifts, which in turn will provide

equipment and opportunities that are not funded from

within the routine expenditure budget.

The key to the success of the Annual Fund is

participation rather than the size of your gift. Gifts of

any size can make a genuine difference to the School.

Whether you are a regular donor or thinking about

donating for the first time every gift helps.

Kingham Hill School was founded by the generosity

of one man whose vision and mission established this

exceptional and unique School. Over time others have

generously contributed financially to the life of the School

in support of a number of projects and for this we are most grateful.

Thank you for taking time to consider supporting Kingham Hill School and I look forward

to reporting our progress next year.
