UTSA Giving Day

On April 6-7, 2021, Roadrunners across the globe will come together for our first ever UTSA Giving Day—a celebration of all things UTSA in support of our extraordinary students, faculty and staff. For 1,969 minutes—or 32 hours, 49 minutes—in honor of the university founding in 1969, Roadrunner Nation will make their voices heard by donating to areas of campus that are important to them.

An effort like this takes support from all of us. We all know that Roadrunners never back down from a challenge.

You can sign up to be a social media ambassador by completing the "Become an Ambassador!" form and downloading the ambassador toolkit.
