Donate The University's Greatest Need We welcome all gifts of whatever size to the University of Oxford and its colleges. We especially appreciate gifts towards the University's greatest current need. Not only does this provide a much more secure footing for us to plan ahead, it enables the University to respond swiftly and flexibly to changing circumstances. Your donations, combined with those of others, make a significant and immediate impact upon the quality of the Oxford experience for our students. Vice-Chancellor's Discretionary Fund Gifts will be directed towards the area of the University’s greatest need. Donors in the US can give tax-effectively via Americans For Oxford (AFO).Donate via AFO
