About Cambridge Rag
Cambridge University's largest student fundraising society, raising money for local, national and international charities by bringing you events such as Blind Date, Jailbreak and Formal Freedom!
Cambridge Rag Description
Cambridge RAG is a student society at the University of Cambridge that raises in the region of £100, 000 each year for charities of the students' choosing.
RAG achieves this amazing amount by organising a number of high-profile university-wide events and smaller college events. If you want to go on a blind date, climb Kilimanjaro or test your blagging skills by trying to get as far away from Cambridge as possible in only 36 hours, RAG can help you!
We also do regular bucket collections (known as 'raids') in Cambridge on Saturdays and often further afield too.
If you want to find out more, drop a line to the President, Will, on the email address given below, ring the office on the number provided or pop in in person! Also, don't forget to check out our Twitter & Instagram @cambridgerag
