Want to double your impact? Join us in December for our annual fundraising campaign
Tuesday 2 December – Tuesday 9 December
The Big Give is back. For the past eight years, every December, we have called on our generous supporters’ festive spirit to help train more teachers in Classics. This year we are counting on your support to help us reach our goal of raising £110,000 (our biggest target yet!). For each and every pound you give during the Big Give week, we will unlock up to £55,000 in match funding from our generous pledgers and our Big Give Champion, AKO Foundation.
‘One donation, double the impact’
This year, your gifts will help to sustain Classics in state schools, especially in areas of deprivation. Since our founding in 2010, Classics for All has supported more than 1,300 state schools across the UK to provide Classics to their pupils. We want to reconnect with as many of those schools which been unable to continue teaching Classics for a variety reasons. We will offer support to all the schools we have previously worked with so that they can re-start or sustain Classics in their classes.
‘I am supporting the Big Give campaign to enable Classics for All to recruit new schools and especially to assist existing schools to ensure they can continue their Classics education.’

' I have been supporting Classics for All through the Big Give Christmas Challenge every year since 2018. As a donor, I am hugely excited to know that any money I donate through the Big Give will have twice the impact of a normal donation thanks to the matched funding arrangements. I hope both new and existing donors will take full advantage of this benefit and support Classics for All in the Big Give this December.'
