Impact
Stories & Results
No institutionally related foundation exists just for the sake of managing and investing money. At the UNT Foundation, we spend so much of our time and effort on effectively and efficiently managing financial resources — not just to tally up large growth numbers, but so we can facilitate the greatest impact possible. We want to maximize the wishes of our donors to provide student scholarships or to undergird key faculty positions or to promote critical programs. We want to create the greatest impact possible, and we want to sustain that impact over time.
Below, we'll share with you stories that illustrate the impact of the generosity of our many alumni and friends ... the impact on students, on faculty, on programs, and indeed, on the donors themselves.
Student ProfilesWhile public universities are involved in original research, economic development, and cultural leadership, students remain the heart and soul of the institution. With financial support from the state on the decline and with costs rising, private scholarships play an increasingly important role in making a quality university education a reality for more and more students. We are grateful for the generosity of our many friends and alumni, but don’t take our word for it. Meet some of our scholarship recipients. |

Donor ProfilesWhy would someone give away a portion of their hard-earned assets? Over the years we’ve discovered that it is not a logical decision, but an emotional one. Many of our most generous friends and alumni consider their gift of a scholarship fund as an investment ... certainly in the life of the scholarship recipient, but also in the future of our state and nation. In the process of giving, we hear time and time again how it is the donor who is enriched by the experience. In giving they end up receiving! Here are some of their stories. |
