Who we are

We’re RAG. We’re here to help organise, inspire and support student fundraising. Each year we put on a range of events and challenges raising thousands of pounds for charities elected by you and have plenty of fun along the way! We also bring fundraising to you - we take casino and glitter services to dozens of College Balls and events each year. Get involved?

Please sign up to our newsletter below for more information about future events:

 

Information for Charities

Nominations for the 2024 RAG Ballot will open in January 12th, 2024 and close January 26th, 2024. An Oxford student will have to nominate you, so we recommend building your relationships with the Oxford student community. 

Although all of our central events and projects raise money for the elected charities, we also support college charity representatives to deliver their own fundraising events and other student fundraising projects - please contact our Charities Liason Officer for more information. 

If you are looking for student volunteers, why not join our Volunteering Portal?

Oxford Pride

Festival events produced by Oxford Pride, plus those promoted on behalf of local organisations, businesses, the universities and individuals, reach out to the wider community to help to raise understanding, empathy and equity."

We are campaigning for a world where human rights are enjoyed by all. We lobby governments, and other powerful groups, such as companies, making sure they keep their promises and respect international law."
