UTMB Health Community Sponsorships

Information and Request Form for UTMB Sponsorships & Support

Historically, UTMB has been an excellent community partner and a valued sponsor of many important community activities and events that align with the institution’s mission. We intend to continue to grant community sponsorships to support the important work being done by nonprofit organizations. Going forward, a new process is in place to centralize and standardize the process by which we provide support to the communities we serve:

  • Beginning in 2015, all sponsorships for non-profit organizations, events and activities are and have been managed through the UTMB Sponsorship Committee, with oversight by the President’s Office.
  • The UTMB Sponsorship Committee includes eight campus representatives—two each from the Health System, the Academic Enterprise, Business and Finance and the President’s Office.
  • This group convenes monthly to consider, approve or decline requests for sponsorship funding.
  • Individual departments or units within UTMB are no longer able to sponsor community activities or events with UTMB-related funds (individuals may continue to support organizations and events with personal funds).

To make this process accessible and convenient for all, this website has been created. It includes program details, a link to the sponsorships policy, and an online form to be used by all individuals and organizations that appeal to UTMB for contributions.

At a Glance

All sponsorships for non-profit organizations, events and activities are managed through the UTMB Sponsorship Committee.

The committee meets monthly; requests should be made 6-8 weeks in advance.

Requests must be made online.

Individual departments or units within the university will no longer be able to sponsor community activities or events with UTMB-related funds; requests for sponsorship reimbursement will not be paid if the request was not approved prior to the event. 

This modified procedure applies only to UTMB-related funding; individuals may continue to support organizations and events with personal funds, at their discretion. See the updated policy.

If your unit or department receives a request to sponsor an organization or event that you would like the Sponsorship Committee to consider, please complete and submit the online form.
