Why Give to the School of Health Professions?

Contributions to the School of Health Professions are used to meet the greatest needs, where they will make the biggest impact, thereby strengthening every area of the school. Current state funding comprises only a portion of the University’s annual budget — financial support from alumni and friends plays a critical role in maintaining excellent academic programs.

Targeted gifts can create endowed chairs in specific disciplines, improve facilities, increase student scholarships, and accomplish many other goals that are in line with your personal interests. Matching funds may be available to quickly increase the support of such an endowment.

Giving through our Annual Fund is also vital for maintaining the excellence of our undergraduate and graduate programs. Through the School of Health Professions Academic Fund, you can support:
• Scholarships
• Research by students and faculty
• Opportunities for student travel to regional and national conferences
• Alumni outreach activities
• Campus lectures and presentations by prominent educators
• Facilities, technology, and equipment maintenance, improvements
• The School’s ability to respond quickly to timely opportunities

Ways to Give

UTMB benefactors have a wide variety of giving options at their disposalmany of which enable you to combine philanthropic and financial goals. Gifts of cash, appreciated securities, life insurance, bequests and real estate are exciting possibilities, as are gifts that provide a source of life incomefrom charitable remainder trusts to charitable gift annuities. Gifts can be unrestricted, enabling us to target the university's highest priorities or can be earmarked for a specific UTMB school, department, program or hospital. Operating gifts have an immediate impact. Endowment gifts, on the other hand, are an investment in the future-a permanent source of support throughout the life of the university.
