The Queens’ and Clare Overseas Education Fund (QCOEF) is an open committee of students and fellows from Queens’ and Clare Colleges. QCOEF raises and allocates funds for education-related projects developing countries. In December 2012 we donated £1,230 to Tools for Self Reliance – a charity which gives people the tools they need to work their way out of poverty.
We are running a series of fund-raising and awareness-raising events in Lent Term 2013. If you are interested in getting involved with the charity, please contact qcoef.charity@gmail.com or message us on Facebook. We are looking to work closely with charities based in Cambridge and worldwide.
This term, we will be accepting applications for funding from charities until Tuesday 5th March. Queens’ and Clare students can then vote for the charity they wish to donate funds to between Wednesday 6th March and Friday 8th March.
At the end of Lent Term, the students of Queens' and Clare College voted
