Investing in the Future
UT Dallas faculty, staff and students can financially contribute to the success of the University in a number of ways.
Comets Giving Day
The first Tuesday in April, UT Dallas alumni, students, faculty, staff and friends #COMETogether for an 18-hour giving event. Mark your calendars for Tuesday, April 2, 2019, to make a cosmic impact.
Employee Payroll Deduction
UT Dallas employees can opt to give back to the University through payroll deduction. To set up your contribution, complete the payroll deduction gift form (pdf) and submit it to the Office of Development and Alumni Relations (SPN 10).
North Texas Giving Day
Each September, North Texans take part in an 18-hour giving effort to benefit local nonprofits, including the Comet community. Mark your calendars for Sept. 19, 2019.
State Employee Charitable Campaign
The Texas Legislature established the State Employee Charitable Campaign (SECC) in 1993. The SECC helps employees of state agencies, universities and community colleges support charities of their choice through an annual campaign featuring convenient payroll deduction.
Each October, UT Dallas joins forces with other institutions for the State Employee Charitable Campaign to raise funds for a number of local, national and international nonprofit organizations. During the 2018 campaign, University faculty and staff opened their hearts to contribute more than $71,000 to the cause.
