How to support us

Help us to support local young people to develop their skills, realise their educational aspirations and achieve their full potential

Options

If you support the Foundation’s objectives of helping local young people to develop their skills, realise their educational aspirations and achieve their full potential, you may wish to consider making a donation to enable our important work to continue. It is also possible to remember Kettering Old Grammar School Foundation in your Will through a legacy.

Whichever method you choose, and however much you can afford to give, we – and the young people we help – will be glad to have your support

Donations

Donations can be made over the phone or by post, and we are pleased to accept either one-off or regular contributions. For tax-payers, using the Gift Aid scheme means that your donation is worth more to the Foundation – as for every pound you give us, we earn an extra 28p from HM Revenue & Customs.
