Making Lives Better
It all starts with you — alumni, friends, generous and passionate investors — and a vision for a healthier future. Because of your generosity and support of UT Health San Antonio, we are the premier academic health center in the seventh largest city in the country, and your level of commitment has been fundamental in helping us achieve this recognition. As you know, philanthropy is an essential component to any great university, and endowments have played a vital role in supporting our mission of making lives better.
Through endowments, our university is provided with resources, in perpetuity, that will advance excellence in leading-edge scientific research, professional health education, compassionate patient care, and engagement within our community — making a difference today and leaving a lasting legacy for tomorrow. We are incredibly honored that UT Health is home to your endowment. Your investment in our university has made a significant impact across South Texas and the world.
UT Health San Antonio is undergoing significant growth as evidenced by our endowments.
This past fiscal year, we established 36 new endowments and within the last five years, the number of endowments established has increased by 22.6% while distributions from these same endowments have increased by 31.8%. This impressive growth from our endowments and their impact was made possible through the support of donors like you.
You stand with us as partners whose generous support makes it possible for us to achieve excellence in education for the next generation of physicians, biomedical scientists, nurses, dentists, and health professionals; the life-saving research our world-class scientists advance every day; the compassionate patient care delivered by our dedicated health care professionals, and to provide our far-reaching community service to improve health for those in need.
We celebrate and honor the incredible history of endowed giving at UT Health San Antonio. It is our honor and privilege to share with you some important stories that define the motivation and impact of your support. We share with you these stories – your stories.
