Giving to Salford
...your support will make a big difference to what we can achieve.

At the University of Salford, we are everything because of our community.
It is with the help of alumni, friends, donors and stakeholders that we can provide a number of scholarships and bursaries to support our students, fund new campus projects each year, provide outstanding resources and fund world-leading research and community hubs.
Your support is vital in ensuring access to higher education for all at the University of Salford and an outstanding student experience, equipping our students to be future leaders, creators and innovators.
The video above shows some of our donor-funded scholarship recipients explain what this support has helped them to achieve. We believe talented students should reach their potential, regardless of circumstance. With your help we can achieve so much more.
The funding structure of a university is complicated. Traditional sources of funding don’t reach all sorts of important projects that have a tremendous impact on students, on our community and the wider world. That’s why we need your help – whether you are able to support us with £3 per month, or a gift that can transform our campus – our strength is through working together.
However you choose to support us, your donation will make a big difference to what we can achieve. 100% of your donation will directly support the area you chose to support.
Philanthropy in action

At the University of Salford, we're honoured to have a diverse community of supporters who share our vision for creating a better future for those within and around our institution.
Over the last three years, our donors, volunteers, and friends have helped us to provide our students, staff and community with life-changing experiences in a range of areas, including employability, entrepreneurship, health and wellbeing, research, community initiatives and more!
As an institution, the University of Salford plays a significant role in driving social mobility in our region as we help to raise the aspirations of young people whilst supporting our current students and alumni as they strive to achieve their dreams. With the encouragement of our supporters, we have continued our incredible work and were not only ranked 6th on the Social Mobility Index for 2022 but partnered with the Social Mobility Pledge.
We are delighted to share the philanthropy in action within our community and would like to thank every individual and organisation that has helped us to create incredible opportunities for everyone at Salford.
