This Easter Vacation, we will once again be running our annual Telephone Campaign, with our student callers taking to the phones to get in contact with you, our alumni. They will be asking about your time at Christ's and current work, whilst providing an update on College in these tough times.

The College is committed to supporting our students outside the classroom, as well as in it, so in this year's Campaign we are launching a fundraising appeal for Christ's College Boat Club, a key part of the College's extracurricual offerings.

W1 won blades in May Bumps in 2022, and the Headship in 2015, but in order to build upon the success of the Club donations are vital. The maintenance and renewal of our fleet can only be done with your support for this historic Christ's institution.
We are hoping to raise £230,000 from calling, a total that would allow us to continue expanding our support for the Christ's community; so please, consider making a donation when a student calls in the coming weeks. Your generosity now will make a real difference to the lives of our students for generations to come.
