As Texas Woman's University begins its second 100 years, you can help lay a firm foundation for the future by giving to the Annual Fund. 

The Annual Fund

  • Supplements the difference between tuition dollars collected and the actual cost of an education for a Texas Woman's University student.
  • Provides resources to keep up with rapidly changing technology.
  • Increases professional participation by students and faculty at conferences that broadens their horizons and enhances the reputation of Texas Woman's University.

An increase in the percentage of giving to the Annual Fund can translate into increased giving from local, statewide, and national foundations and corporations.  We must increase the financial support of alumni to be more effective - and more successful - in our quest for corporate and foundation financial support.

Giving helps lay a firm foundation for the future: contribute, volunteer your time and expertise, get involved with a committee, encourage others to get involved with TWU.

 If a TWU college education made a difference in your life, why not help make a difference in the life of a current student?
