Give the Gift of Graduation

A Wits graduation is a joyous event, but hundreds of hard-working students, who have proven their commitment by passing against all odds, cannot graduate because they struggle to pay their fees.

You could give the gift of graduation to such students and their families.

These students are often the first in their extended families to attend university, and typically have no assets to secure a loan. Instead, they diligently pay back their debt to Wits – but it takes them years and years.

You could give them the gift of celebrating their success with their classmates, so that they are not left behind again.

Wits will add to your gift by allowing students who owe R15,000.00 (about £750) or less to graduate, provided they have signed an agreement to reimburse Wits. Your alma mater is proud to be educating some of South Africa’s finest young minds irrespective of the students’ circumstances. Please join us to assist these diligent students to graduate.

Thank you to our generous donors, your gifts change lives!

To let us know of your donation or for queries- Please contact Lynda Murray, Wits Representative UK at Lynda.Murray@wits.ac.za or (+44) 0757 093 0704

“Thank you so much for the funding…

I really appreciate the assistance you provide to the young generation of our continent for the upliftment of our communities and our economies”

“It’s still so surreal when I think about the fact that my outstanding debt has been settled by your generosity, it really feels like I’m dreaming. Words are not enough to express my sincere appreciation. I am truly grateful for the opportunity that you have given to me as there is nothing else imaginable that compares to what my life could have been if I couldn’t graduate.”
