The alliance between visionary philanthropists and academics has been a driving force of progress at Cambridge for more than 800 years.
The one-off publication acknowledges the success of the 800th Anniversary Campaign, which raised more than £1 billion for Collegiate Cambridge, and highlights the continuing impact and importance of philanthropy at Cambridge.
The best way to understand the impact of philanthropy is to see it at work. The University and Colleges have benefited from many transformative donations – large and small – over the last ten years and The Philanthropist provides numerous examples of the difference that such generosity can make.
The alliance between visionary philanthropists and academics has been a driving force of progress at Cambridge for more than 800 years.
Cambridge’s fundraising continues, and it is this partnership with its supporters that will continue to develop and safeguard Cambridge’s cultural legacy. It will ensure its continued pre-eminence as a leading global teaching and research institution across all branches of international scholarship.
The magazine will be distributed widely, to University and College donors and across the institution.
