Graduating Class Gift of 2015Giving back – support your Business School
The Graduating Class Gift is an opportunity for you and your classmates to come together and support your Business School. Together you can make a real difference to the experience of future programme members and to the future of your business school through the Henley Alumni Fund.
Graduating Class GiftThe Graduating Class Gift was first launched in 2012, providing graduating MBAs with the opportunity to come together and create an immediate impact on current and future students. Funds raised go directly to the Henley Alumni Fund which provides bursaries and hardship fund grants.
In 2014, five members of the graduating class benefited from the Henley Alumni Fund, and all chose to support their Graduating Class Gift.
