Hello again Abdul
**
Thanks again for this request for information, made under the terms of the
FOIA 2000.

alumni.
**
In due course, donations will be able to made via the University's 'E
Shop':

**
although this is a work in progress. However, for the moment, either:
**
1. cheques (payable to 'London Metropolitan University') may be sent to
Kay Choudhury (Alumni Manager) at:
**
Ms Kay Choudhury

**
2. the University cashiers may be contacted (020-7133-2062 or 2603) for
credit/debit card payments
**
**
I have also been in touch with a colleague in the Women's Library, Amy
Gibson. She has kindly supplied a response, should potential donations
relate specifically to that particular branch of London Metropolitan
University. I'll forward her response to you shortly.
**
Hope this helps.

Oops! Sorry about that. It was the predictive text element of my email
that did that; I should have noticed!
**
In answer to your question - yes, I believe so. However, I'm copying-in my
Finance colleague, Maria Ellis, for her confirmation, just to be sure!
(Thanks, Maria - this relates to mechanisms for making donations to the
University)

I am assuming it is alright to donate unless I told otherwise because according to the company info page that is the main account for the University. In the payee line putting in donation and they should understand.
