Our Annual Fund

What is the Annual Fund?

Our Annual Fund has been set up to support Sevenoaks School here and now, harnessing the power of collective giving. We invite members of our community to participate with a gift or pledge to the Annual Fund, which will support the spaces, programmes, people and innovations that help students at Sevenoaks flourish.

The goal of this concentrated appeal is to secure all gifts and pledge commitments before the Christmas break, with payments made in full by 31 July 2026.

We hope that parents and Old Sennockians will hear the call to action and say “yes” to donating to the Annual Fund and supporting our exceptional school and community.

What will my gift support?

The Annual Fund is the primary means for all of us give what we can to support our amazing school and ensure an incredible experience for all our students.

What if I can't make a large gift?

Your donation, no matter the size, has the potential to change lives. When combined with the contributions of others, its power multiplies.

A monthly gift of £14.32 adds up to £170 a year. If a single year group of Old Sennockians gave this amount, we would raise over £40,000 a year.

If a quarter of our current families were able to give £143.20 a month, we would generate over £500,000 this year to invest straight back into the school.

Please join us – every gift, big or small, will have a huge impact.

How can I donate?

Wherever you are in the world, you can make a single or regular gift via debit or credit card.

UK donors can also set up regular gifts via Direct Debit.

If you’re based in the USA, Hong Kong or Europe, you can donate tax-efficiently within your country.

Make your gift online, using the donate button, or if you would prefer to pledge a gift for a later date, please email foundation@sevenoaksschool.org

Pledge payments are due in full by 31 July 2026.

Can I make a corporate matching gift?

Yes! Many companies match employees’ charitable gifts. This kind of support makes a significant contribution, as it can double or triple the size of your gift. Please contact your company’s charitable giving representative for the latest matching gift policies and relevant forms to complete at your organisation.

Sevenoaks School Foundation is a UK-registered charity and you may need to quote our charity number 307923.

Does the school receive other income or donations?

Yes. In addition to school fees, commercial income and donations to the Annual Fund, the Foundation is building a permanent Sevenoaks School Endowment that, in time, will provide regular income through interest.

We are currently in the growth phase, and hope to reach £10m in our Endowment by July 2026.

If you would like to find out more, or make a donation to the Endowment, please email foundation@sevenoaksschool.org

LIFE-CHANGING OPPORTUNITIES

Testimonies from past recipients of financial assistance demonstrate the power of supporting Sevenoaks; you really can change individuals’ lives. Strengthening the school’s commitment to inclusion enriches learning and benefits the whole community. Widening access to a Sevenoaks education ensures we remain a place of opportunity, responsibility and innovation for generations to come.

Headmaster Jesse Elzinga recently sat down with longstanding member of staff Alex Smith and parent Sujata Setia to discuss financial assistance, and you can watch their conversation here.
