American Friends of St Hilda's

The American Friends of St Hilda’s is the collective name for the 650+ Senior Members who reside in the United States, as well as the formal name of our US-registered charity. We are extremely grateful to everyone who has donated or supported our network since its inception.

Founded in 1988 by former Principal Mary Moore and enthusiastic US alumnae, such as Joanna Rose (1952-53), The American Friends of St Hilda’s charity [501(c)(3)] provides a facility for American taxpayers to make tax-deductible donations in US$ to St Hilda’s College.

There is a small board that oversees the administration of the charity and current officers are Sarah Teale (1980-1983), Julie Fenster (1979-80) and Judith Coquillette (1965-68).

Our American Friends network also comes together to help organise events and opportunities to connect for anyone who studied or taught at St Hilda’s (undergraduates, graduates, visiting and Junior Year Abroad students, Junior and Senior Research Fellows, and Visiting Fellows) and any other College representatives who may be visiting the US.

If you would like to become a coordinator for a particular city or part of the US or to volunteer in other ways, please do not hesitate to get in touch with the College’s Development Team. Email development@st-hildas.ox.ac.uk.
