Each year, RAG supports four charities via their student-led fundraising events. These events help to raise money for the Big 4, with a small allocation going to the Small Charity Grant and to RAG's operating costs.
RAG's Top Two applications are now closed.
From the 2024/25 academic year, RAG have decided to change the Big 4 to the Top Two so that their fundraising can have a greater impact on charitable projects.
If you are a UK-registered charity and would like to considered as one of RAG's Top Two charities, then please have a look at our Application Guidelines.
Please note: if you are one of this year's Big 4 you cannot apply again next year, you must wait until the following academic year.
