An endowment is created by a donor with a gift containing a legal stipulation that the original gift may never be expended. These gifts are held and invested in perpetuity by The TWU Foundation for the purpose of generating a permanent expendable income stream from the return on the gift for the purpose the donor desires. The minimum amount to establish an endowment is $25,000. However, an endowment pledge may be fulfilled over a period of five (5) years.
At Texas Woman’s University we are committed to becoming a global leader in Women and Leadership, Health, Experiential Learning and Veterans. You can become part of this commitment through estate and other types of planned gifts that will support our mission today and far into the future. We would love to talk with you about planning a gift to TWU. We’re here to answer all your questions on how you can help us pioneer the future.

Our Priorities
Your gifts support TWU, its people, and its programs.
TWU is a state-assisted (rather than a state-supported) institution. The primary way in which we accomplish this mission is by garnering non-government financial support from a variety of areas.
Gift support from alumni, faculty, staff, corporations, foundations, friends and supporters of TWU provide critically needed funding to literally every area of the university. The trained staff at the Office of University Advancement not only solicits these charitable donations, but also performs the gift receipting for income tax purposes and stewardship duties for donor needs.
