As these percentages indicate, private support is playing an increasingly important role in maintaining and enhancing the strength of our University. In many cases, the contributions from alumni and friends provide educational opportunities that otherwise would be unavailable. As a result, you may designate your gift to support any campus, college or program within the UT system. Undesignated gifts also benefit UT students and faculty. These unrestricted dollars are primarily used to fund the UT National Alumni Association scholarship program.
Many donors choose to designate their gifts to one or more campus or department funds.
Below is a partial list of areas you may chose to support. Certain benefits and services are made available for contributors in the above categories. The Director of Recognition Clubs is available to answer any questions related to donor recognition. Many companies encourage their employees to support higher education by matching their gifts to colleges and universities. To participate, pick up a form through your company's personnel or human resources department, complete the sections that apply to you, and send the form and your personal gift to our office.
