looming debt;

it recognizes individual academic
achievement;

attendance and studies, clinical field
rotations, community outreach and
service-learning programs;

retain outstanding students from all age
groups and various cultural backgrounds;

environment at the School of Health
Professions while enhancing the UTMB Health mission of educational

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