Play your part in 'sustaining excellence'
We all want to believe that in some way, we can help make this world a better place ... that what we do today will have a lasting, positive influence on generations to come.
For those of us privileged to be part of the Rhodes community, contributing to the Annual Fund is an effective and meaningful way of making a difference.
For example, you can choose to:
- Rhodes Sports Foundation – Established through a generous donation from an alumnus, the Foundation funds sporting facilities and bursaries for talented young sportsmen and women.
- support life-changing research – such as Prof Tebello Nyokong's award winning work into photodynamic therapy for cancer patients;
- Bursaries/student support forms a vital part, as large numbers of talented and deserving students will not have the opportunity to study at university if they do not get financial aid.
- honour a faculty or department that impacted on your life;
- General Funds that can be channelled to areas of greatest need;
Whichever area of need you choose to support, your contribution is important and sincerely appreciated. Just as those who went before us played their part in establishing the University, we rely on alumni, staff and friends like you to play your part in helping to shape its future.
For more information on any of these projects, or making a donation to Rhodes University, please contact Annelise Pienaar on +27 (0) 46 603 7024 or email: annualfund@ru.ac.za.
