- Donate to the LSHTM Fund

Donations to the LSHTM Fund (formerly the Alumni Fund) enable the School to continue to improve health worldwide. This year donations to the LSHTM Fund will be used to fund scholarships. For information on giving to the LSHTM Fund including making tax-deductible gifts visit our Support Us section.
- Mentoring and supporting students

E-mentoring is open to all LSHTM students and alumni, with students connecting with mentors via our online community. Mentors will volunteer their time, committing to at least three 45 minute (face-to-face, telephone, or video calling) meetings with their mentee throughout the academic year. If you would like to take part, please sign up to LSHTM Connect.
