As a non-profit organisation founded in Ireland, The Global Undergraduate Awards is fully committed to achieving the standards contained within the Statement of Guiding Principles for Fundraising as outlined by the ICTR.

The Statement exists to improve fundraising practice, promote high levels of accountability and transparency by organisations fundraising from the public, and provide clarity and assurances to donors and prospective donors about the organisations they support. More information about the fundraising principles is available on the ICTR website.

The Global Undergraduate Awards is registered in Ireland as a company limited by guarantee. We have structured a varied funding model consisting of the following three streams:

• Administrative fees from our Affiliate Universities, which allow us to promote our programme internationally;
• Corporate, university, and appropriate State agency partnerships;
• Philanthropic donations and grants from individuals and organisations.

Unless otherwise requested, we acknowledge our donors, Partner and Affiliate Universities on our website with sincere thanks for their support.

We have considered the Statement of Guiding Principles for Fundraising and believe we meet the standards it sets out. You can read our Public Compliance Statement here. Our Donor Charter is also available here. We welcome your feedback on any element of our performance via any of the contact points provided. You can also check out our Feedback and Complaints procedure here.
