Welcome

Clongowes Wood College Foundation was formed in 2004 as a charitable trust. Since then it has been engaged in securing the support from a group of private individuals and businesses for the advancement of education at Clongowes and the support of pupils attending the College.  The Foundation is committed to nurturing lasting relationships with donors who share Clongowes’ vision for the future.

The mission of Clongowes Wood College S.J. is to create an open, happy, stimulating, mutually respectful community environment in which young men are able to develop the full range of their talents and abilities in a balanced, integrated and generous way.  In 2014 Clongowes will celebrate its bicentenary year.  In order to ensure that we can continue to deliver on this mission for a third century we now must look to the future and embrace the challenges it holds.

Clongowes Towards 200 is the Foundation’s major development campaign which aims to raise €45m to support the advancement of ethos, access and education at Clongowes Wood College to ensure that it can continue to deliver on its mission for a third century.  It will fund an extensive building programme providing for the extension, renewal and modernisation of the buildings and facilities of the College.  It will also fund a formal access programme of scholarships and bursaries for pupils attending theCollege.
