WHY GIVE TO LINCOLN?

The Mission of Lincoln College is to ensure egalitarian access to education. As a not-for-profit organisation,
the College relies on generous donations to fund our capital projects, scholarships and bursaries.

Your generous donations could mean the difference between a student being able to move to Adelaide to continue their education from a rural or low socio-economic area, or not. We want living arrangements to be the simplest aspect of this educational transition.

You can make a life changing difference, not just in the lives of our residents, but in the lives of those they go on to impact in their future careers as a result.

We launch our annual appeal each year in March. To receive communications on this, please add your details below.

Including a bequest to Lincoln in your will offers a significant way of providing support for the future of Lincoln and its future residents. Bequests can be vital in ensuring that Lincoln College can continue to exist and provide the experience and culture that residents and alums benefit from and remember fondly. It provides an opportunity to give to the college where you may not find it possible during your lifetime.

It can pave way for essential student scholarships and support, enhancement of our heritage buildings and upgrades to our facilities to really provide a new level of student experience.

There are a number of unique bequest opportunities you may consider. For more information about leaving a bequest to Lincoln College, please contact College CEO Carolyn Mee either by phone: +61 8 8290 6000 or Email

You can directly impact the lives of our residents.

We are constantly looking to improve the experience of Lincoln College residents, whether supporting them financially or improving the facilities of the College. We rely on the contributions of others to make this possible. Donations to Lincoln College are tax deductible and will be valued no matter how large or small.

Lincoln College also greatly appreciates giving in-kind of our Alumni and college friends. Many give their time to mentor students, assist with career pathway advice and connect our students to a network of further opportunities. Others contribute their knowledge and wisdom by partaking in various panel sessions or committees within the college.
