When the university began planning for the $250 million Timeless Values, Pioneering Solutions Campaign, we knew that the success of this far-reaching endeavor would depend on a dedicated cadre of committed and well-connected volunteers. Collectively you and your fellow volunteers are the campaign’s engine, the advocates who propel UTMB forward by linking us with potential benefactors in communities throughout the state and leading with the example of your own generosity.

UTMB takes seriously its responsibility as a public trust. For more than 110 years, the university has pushed forward the frontiers of biomedical knowledge, has cultivated generations of health care pioneers and has remained a source of exceptional clinical care, particularly for medically underserved and vulnerable populations throughout the state.

Building on that tradition, the Timeless Values, Pioneering Solutions Campaign is about the right ideas at the right time. The campaign reflects UTMB at its best, capitalizing on the strength of programs that are among the most respected of their kind in the world; it responds to pressing societal needs, striving to transform health care in Texas and beyond. It thrives at the crossroads of opportunity, where the investment of philanthropic partners can make a crucial difference.

Below are some one-page facts sheets, magazine article reprints and general resources that you can print out and use when talking to potential supporters.

Thank you for your commitment to UTMB and sharing our goals of improving healthcare for the citizens of Texas, now and for years to come.
