About Us

The Division of University Advancement at Texas Woman’s University is responsible for fundraising programs in the areas of annual gifts, capital gifts and program support. University Advancement collaborates with the Texas Woman’s University Foundation to support and further the mission of the institution through the acceptance, investment and stewardship of gifts from alumni, friends, corporations, foundations and associations.

The generosity of university donors further enhances and supports the work of the faculty, researchers and students through funding for scholarships, professorships, graduate fellowships, research and programmatic support.
