Imperial College London closed out another academic year ranked the top university in the UK and second in the world in the QS World University Rankings — recognition the university credited to the strength of its wider community, donors included. In a letter to Christos and Nayia Poullaides, Aileen Brennan, Regular Giving Officer at Imperial, thanked the couple for their support, pointing to stories featured in the university’s Impact of Giving Report as evidence of the difference their giving had made to students’ lives.
As part of the Imperial Ionic giving circle, CPF’s contributions were recognised as part of that wider effort to give students the resources they needed to succeed — a partnership Aileen Brennan described as a driving force behind students’ success at the university.
“Your generosity is a driving force throughout Imperial as it sets our students up for success.”
— Aileen Brennan, Regular Giving Officer, Imperial College London
For CPF, the relationship reflected a broader belief: that consistent, long-term giving — not just one-off gifts — was what allowed institutions like Imperial to plan ahead and support students year after year.
