Make a Donation
The responsibility for securing the continued success of the School and enabling future generations of boys and girls to benefit from the unique culture of Milton Abbey lies with those of us who value it most.
Donations can be made as one-off gifts or spread over a number of years. Many of our current donors have chosen to make their gifts over a five-year period, allowing them to make a significant contribution to the Campaign at all levels.
Below are some examples of how a regular, monthly gift can add up to a substantial sum over a number of years. The table also shows how making a Gift Aid declaration can significantly increase the value of a gift and how higher rate tax payers can greatly reduce the cost of their donation. (See Tax Effective Giving for further details.)
