2011 3L Gift Campaign
Campaign Goals
100% Participation
Roughly 11 percent of our alumni made contributions to the UT College of Law in the 2009 calendar year. We believe 100 percent participation in a class gift will set a new standard for giving and inspire both current and future alumni to strengthen their financial commitments to the college.
A $30,000 Class Gift
A five year time period for fulfilling pledges makes it possible for 3Ls to make a larger total gift to the college than would be possible if the entire amount had to be paid immediately.
Feeling Strapped for Cash?
Graduated Pledge*
Make a significant gift with an intitial payment as small as $5 per month in the first year following graduation, followed by incrementally larger payments over the next four years.
Volunteer Gift or Pledge*
This is a one-time gift of $1,200. You can pay all at once or in instalments of $20.00 per month over five years
Centennial Gift*
Support the college with a one-time gift of $100.
Contribution
A gift of any amount counts toward our goal of 100 percent participation
*All 3ls who commit $100 or more to the gift campaign will be honored on a plaque to be hung in the law school.
