Support our work with Young People
One Degree is 100% funded by donations. These donations provide us with the resources to raise achievement in young people.
Donations changing lives
Your donations go directly towards meeting the expenses involved in offering one-to-one mentoring to students from disadvantaged backgrounds.
- Our 11th programme began in November 2019 and will run for 21 Saturdays until June 2020.
- We are working with 58 carefully selected students from north London schools.
- Our programme involves academic support and personal development in the form of group and individual mentoring as well as online mentoring.
- Our students are given opportunities to participate in volunteering, work experience, career workshops, career support, motivational speakers, excursions and links to collaborating charities.
- Our focus on quality not quantity means that our programme costs £800-£1000 per student.
- Our results speak for themselves!
Corporate Social Investment
One Degree can be integrated into your company’s CSI programme through sponsorship. This goes beyond superficially “giving something back” to give disadvantaged children a chance to change their life prospects and reach their potential.

Partnerships and Collaboration
The network we nurture is core to our ethos. This refers not only our mentor and student networks, but also partnerships and collaborations. We are looking to link up with similar charities and social enterprises that we may be able to work with in some way, or that may offer our students something we cannot. Such organisations currently include MyBnk; Alcohol Education Trust; TechMaids; US Charitable Trust and Inneri.
We’re always looking to put together partnerships with organisations with likeminded goals and aspirations
