October 31, 2017

Thank you to everyone who has given to our Dollar$ for Development campaign. Thanks to you all, the campaign has been gaining momentum and attention, but we still have a long way to go to reach our goal. Because it is such an important cause, we have extended our deadline to give through Nov. 15. Help us keep spreading the word about our fundraising goal to help students with their travel expenses to attend professional conferences or grants. You can help us keep making progress by sharing the link to our Impact UTD Campaign page and by encouraging your friends and family to give.

Help us reach our goal to help students like Naomi

Meet Naomi

Attending a conference or professional meeting can be an expensive endeavor that is not an option for students with limited resources.  Your contributions to the Dollar$ for Development Campaign, sponsored by the UT Dallas Office of Diversity and Community Engagement, can help a student from the Diversity Scholarship Program or the Academic Bridge Program land their first job or internship by helping defray the expensive travel costs associated with attending professional development conferences. Furthermore, your contributions play an important role in fostering a group of successful critical thinkers who learn how to pay it forward.

 

Thank you for your support throughout this campaign. Please continue to share this project with your friends, family, co-workers, professional organizations, and social media networks. Encourage everyone to give. Every gift helps make a difference in the lives of our students. #Whoosh #Dollars4Development
