Relying on philanthropic gifts from Queen’s supporters, the Annual Fund has been supporting students at Queen’s for 25 years. Every year Queen’s students come together to support our annual telethon fundraising campaign to generate donations for the Queen’s Annual Fund. Students engage with graduates and supporters of the University to encourage support for various projects such as scholarships, student societies and wellbeing initiatives. 

Last year the campaign raised just under £230k which supported a range of projects. They included a wellbeing programme equipping students with techniques to improve their mental health; the Teddy Bear Hospital initiative which enables medical students to teach young children about healthcare in primary schools; and the NI Schools Debating Competition taken forward by the Literific Society, raising the bar on public speaking and debating skills for Queen’s students and post primary pupils who took part in the competition.
