“The finest gift is education.”

The Sternians Trust Fund exists to try to ensure that those who begin their education at Lord Wandsworth College do not have that gift taken away from them through adversity. Over the years the Trust Fund has supported girls and boys whose parents have been taken ill, lost their jobs or whose businesses have crashed – all difficult and unforeseen events – which made it impossible for parents to meet the fees.

The Trust Fund was established in its present form in 1961 and has been built up through donations, bequests, covenants/gift aid and fundraising efforts. As school fees inevitably rise, there are increasing demands on the income from the Fund, which is the source of support for pupils.  By growing the Fund’s capital, the income can be increased to keep pace with requests for assistance.
