Charities
Contributions
If you would like to contribute to the charity budget, you can do so through the termly levy on your battels account, which is labelled ‘JCR Charity Payment’.
The Charity budget is divided between supporting the college’s permanent charities (voted on annually), making up the sponsorship fund, and to charitable events in college.
Sponsorship Fund
The charity sponsorship fund supports members of the college who are fundraising for charity. Funds available will vary depending on the charities budget and the amount requested. Please either fill in the form, or use it as a guideline to submit requests via email (email to [email protected]).
The form is here to view and download.
Charities Supported by LMH
The charities supported by LMH are flexible, and open to suggestions which are important to the LMH community.
Please do contact the Charities Officer ([email protected]) if you are keen to run an event in support of a particular charity.
The charities which part of the budget will be donated to in 2024 are:
Oxford Mutual Aid
OMA provides 170 households with regular food, toiletries, and baby supplies, and deliver nearly 100 emergency food parcels a week. They help out around 800 of our neighbours with essential items every month.
The Gatehouse
The Gatehouse has been supporting Oxford’s homeless community since 1988. They now offer a wide range of free services and activities to adults who are homeless, vulnerably housed, on low or no income or simply looking for company and community from our drop-in community centre in Woodstock Road.
Oxfordshire Sexual Abuse & Rape Crisis Centre
They are a feminist organisation committed to supporting survivors of sexual abuse, rape, domestic abuse, and harassment. They offer a free and confidential service to survivors who are dealing with the effects of sexual violence, and to anyone who is supporting them.
