Fundraising phone calls from Warwick

Have you just received a call from us?

CallerIf you’ve recently been contacted by one of our students we hope you thoroughly enjoyed speaking to them. If you've missed a call from us, then we hope we'll be able to speak to you soon.

Everyone on the team is a current Warwick student and they play a hugely important role in keeping the University connected to our global family of alumni, friends and supporters. Whether you graduated in 1968 or 2020 we always want to hear what you've gone on to do after your Warwick degree, or perhaps you never studied here but are connected to Warwick for a different reason.

We know you can keep in touch with Warwick news via social media, but for us, it's great to speak to you directly about everything that's happening here and find out your opinions on some of the latest developments. And of course, the students love to hear the interesting stories, insights and advice from generations that studied at Warwick before them!

Our students not only keep you in touch with the University, but also raise money for fantastic projects happening right now at Warwick. Last year we spoke with thousands of graduates and raised the equivalent of 19 scholarships! Thank you to everyone who made generous donations over the phone last year.

All these donations are now being put to work across the University and some projects wouldn't even get off the ground without donations from our supporters. Whether it’s providing more scholarships , supporting young people within our local community of Coventry, or empowering students to make a difference within schools across Ghana, Tanzania and South Africa; your support is vital.

If you have any questions or comments, or would like to update your details so you can receive a call from us, then please get in touch on 024 7657 4037 or benefactors@warwick.ac.uk.

If you would like to donate online, you can donate quickly and securely here.

Meet some of our current Student Fundraisers

Itunu

My name is Itunu Bankole-Olusina. I’m a second-year student, here at the University of Warwick, studying MORSE (Maths, Operational Research, Statistics and Economics). I’m an international student, from Nigeria, but I’m currently studying from my house in Earlsdon, Coventry.

My favourite thing about being a student fundraiser is that it gives me the opportunity to have conversations with Warwick Alumni. It is usually interesting to hear what alumni from different years did while they were here and what they’ve gone on to do since leaving Warwick. When I’m not fundraising calling or studying, I’m most likely listening to Nigerian music or watching a romcom on Netflix.

Sam

I’m Sam and I’m currently a third-year student studying Biomedical Science. Being back at University recently has been fantastic, I’ve been spending lots of quality time with my housemates and teaching myself how to cook alongside my studies!

This job has taught me so many valuable life skills and I love learning what people have gone on to do once they have graduated – it makes me excited about my own future! I’ve has so many fantastic conversations over the last couple of years, and this year I am so excited to be a part of the supervision team. The passion of the team and the level of generosity that comes from our alumni always amazes me and leaves me feeling so proud to be a part of this community.

Hi, my name is Jess and I'm a part-time History student. I enjoy exercising, such as swimming and running, as well as outdoor activities, such as gardening. I like spending as much time outdoors as is possible during times like these!

I also love volunteering and charity work as it feels great to give back to others. I look forward to meeting the other student fundraisers as well as getting to know alumni over the phone.
