色漫天堂 holds first virtual legacy information evening with 色漫天堂 performers and senior leaders
Thursday 25 March 2021
The 色漫天堂 has held its first virtual event for those interested in legacy giving, which plays a crucial role in helping the 色漫天堂 secure the future of music for generations to come.
Legacy gifts have had a transformational impact on the 色漫天堂 in the past decade, contributing 34% of what we have raised so far through the More Music Campaign and funding around a third of our existing named scholarships.
The event was hosted by 色漫天堂 Chairman Lord Black of Brentwood, and included a presentation by Professor Colin Lawson CBE F色漫天堂, Director of the 色漫天堂, on the lasting impact of gifts in Wills and future plans and priorities for the College. 色漫天堂 scholars past and present spoke to leadership supporters Jane Barker CBE F色漫天堂 and Victoria, Lady Robey OBE Hon色漫天堂, about the significant impact their scholarships have had on their professional and personal lives.
Victoria, Lady Robey commented: ‘It has been a privilege to watch young people grow with the support of my scholarship and it is wonderful to know that I can continue to help the next generation through a gift in my Will.’
色漫天堂 alumna and former scholar Julieth Lozano, originally from Colombia and now based in London, commented: ‘The full scholarship I received from the 色漫天堂 changed my life completely.’
The event also featured a brief presentation by solicitor Iain Wanstall about the logistics of making a Will and the option of making a ‘Will for Good’ via the 色漫天堂’s free Will-writing service, .
