As a charity seeking donations from the public, UCD Volunteers Overseas aims to comply with the Guidelines for Charitable Organisations Fundraising from the Public issued by the Charities Regulator in 2017. Our pledge is to treat all our donors with respect, honesty and openness. We commit to being accountable and transparent so that donors and prospective donors can have full confidence in UCD Volunteers Overseas. See below to find out what ways you can donate to UCDVO.

 

General Donations - Coote Bursary Fund

(monthly or once-off) - these donations will be directed to the Coote Bursary fund. This bursary was established in honour of UCDVO’s founder, the late Fr. Tony Coote. The Coote Bursary aims to reduce financial barriers to participating in international volunteering. Since its launch in 2024, we have supported 10 students to participate in the volunteer programme who may not otherwise have been able to do so. Eligibility criteria includes being in receipt of the UCD Student Support Fund.

You can make a donation via the Splink platform here. UCDVO will direct donations via Splink to the Coote Bursary Fund. Please note, donations can be once off or set up as a monthly donation. 

Thank you for considering supporting this important fund to broaden participation in the volunteer programme.
