STIMULUS celebrates its 25th anniversary this year. The programme is hugely popular, has benefits for all participants, and currently creates around 250 volunteer placements a year, resulting in Cambridge University students donating over 4,000 hours of time each year to working in local schools. However, to ensure the programme's future we urgently need to raise further funds to cover the
co-ordination costs of the programme in the 2012/13 academic
year and beyond. We've therefore launched the STIMULUS 25th Anniversary Appeal.

The STIMULUS programme is entirely reliant upon donations
for financial support (you can see a list of our current donors here). STIMULUS is very cost-effective — the annual running costs, including all
volunteer training, liaison with schools to organise around 250
placements every year, arranging CRB checks for volunteers and
monitoring the placements, equate to less than £4
per student volunteer per contact hour in local schools.

If you would like to help, we would be very
grateful if you would consider making a donation. We are
immensely grateful for all support we receive, and your gift,
of whatever size, will make a real difference to us.
