Bicester Community College student Zoe Wright, 18, of Dumas Close, Bicester, is hoping to raise at least £400 for Oxford's Helen and Douglas House hospices when she makes a tandem parachute jump at Weston-on-the-Green next month.
Zoe, who works as a volunteer at the hospices, said: "I've so far raised £300 through family and friends and I held a cake sale at college last month.
"Helen and Douglas House are really important hospices and they don't get any Government funding."
