The Radley Foundation

Foundation Progress Report

Foundation Progress Report from the Development Director
Anthony Robinson - February 2012

£1.3 million gifted or pledged to The Foundation during 2011 - the Silver Ball attracts 900 and raises £280,000 on the night - The Armed Forces Fund breaks through the £1,000,000 mark

I am delighted to report that 2011 was a memorable year for The Radley Foundation with record receipts and more people involved in supporting our efforts than ever before. The launch of the Armed Forces Fund (AFF) seemed to catch the imagination, and the subsequent generosity and commitment of our many supporters have been overwhelming. A total of £1,338,591 (1,169 gifts) was donated or pledged to the Foundation during the calendar year, £722,563 (754 gifts) of which was given to the AFF.

I would like to thank everyone for their strong support and encouragement during 2011 and for enabling us to give help where help is most needed. The families of 27 Radleians now receive financial support from the Foundation, either with bursaries from The Silk Fund or other Foundation Funds. We are very pleased that a record number of 10 year olds applied for Foundation Funds last November and a further 4 boys have recently been offered bursaries to start at Radley in September 2014. Considerable funds still need to be raised to see these boys through their five years at Radley, but the College and the Foundation are fully committed to giving life-changing opportunities to talented individuals such as these who would not otherwise be able to come to a school like Radley.
