Building Lasting Partnerships
Our mission is to foster sustainable, donor-centric relationships between The University of Texas at Dallas and private foundations.
As a central, on-campus resource for grantmakers and grantseekers, the foundation relations team advances UT Dallas priorities by cultivating and supporting impactful partnerships with local and national foundations and non-governmental grantmaking agencies. Our team strives to:
Promote Academic Excellence, Innovation and Impact
Our team collaborates to build support for the University’s cutting-edge research, community engagement and outreach projects, student success initiatives and other deserving needs. Learn more about how you can invest in UT Dallas and North Texas communities.
Enable Foundations to Further Meet Their Missions
Our team provides connection points for foundations and other grantmakers to University programs and projects. We explore, establish and sustain partnerships that strategically align donors’ priorities with community needs, which in turn benefit UT Dallas and most importantly, the people, neighborhoods and regions impacted by these investments.
Collaborate to Develop Compelling Proposals
Our team also serves UT Dallas faculty, program directors, staff and University leadership. Depending on the level of need, we can help develop strong, compelling grant proposals, budgets and impact reports that are comprehensive and outcome-focused.
