Foundation Development Office

The FDO works with the Old Vigornian Club to help past pupils - Old Vigornians (OVs), Parents and Friends of the School to maintain their links with King's and to provide regular opportunities to get together at locations around the world. To see details of events and news, go to our OV pages.

We also aim to encourage and foster the interest and financial support from OVs, Parents and Friends of the School to develop new and permanent sources of funding over the coming years for the three Schools within the King's Foundation. If you would like more information about our fundraising activities please do contact us or go to the Ways of Giving section in Development.
