True to the Guild founders' early objectives, we maintain and administer a charity which was established to assist our members and their families and to support charitable work and activities which are related to the City and its surrounds. We also provide substantial support to schools associated with the City; and pupils of the City of London Freemen's School, Christ's Hospital and other City schools benefit regularly from educational grants and prizes.
In addition, every year the Guild supports other fund-raising organisations with which we share a common purpose. Here is a list of the donations made in recent years as well as the results of the Centenary Appeal.
If you wish to support the Guild's charity there are several ways to make a donation.
We are happy to receive single or regular donations to the Guild’s Charity.
Donations to the Guild's Charity qualify for Gift Aid (currently an addition of 25% tax releif) and this can be claimed on your donations simply by completing and returning a Gift Aid Declaration
