Birkbeck calling! Recruitment begins for telephone campaign

Each spring, Birkbeck runs a four-week telephone campaign with the aim of contacting former students to give them news and updates on developments at the College, to find out what they've been up to since their time at Birkbeck and to invite them to donate to the Alumni Fund.

Last year's campaign raised more than £100,000 and the Development and Alumni team are seeking enthusiastic and motivated Birkbeck students for this year's campaign.

Evana Topolovec, Development Manager said: "To date, the telephone campaigns have been incredibly successful. Around 8,000 generous gifts from alumni and friends of the College have helped to raise over £260,000 for the Alumni Fund. In this tough economic climate, the work of the Fund is more important than ever in supporting our students through their time at Birkbeck."
