APRIL 1, 2020 — To help relieve some of the stress that students might be facing due to coronavirus-related changes to their daily lives, UTSA has created key funds that support Roadrunners’ most prevalent needs during this time.
“We have already seen many alumni and other members of the community step up to support our students with gifts to these funds. We are overwhelmingly grateful for the support,” said Karl Miller-Lugo, vice president for development and alumni relations at UTSA. “Still, we have also seen a great level of need in all of these areas. We know this time is challenging for everyone, but if people can spare it, gifts to these funds are vital because it will help students stay enrolled and stay on time to graduate.”

Students are also grateful for support of these funds. “What a message it sends when alumni and other people donate to these assistance funds,” said Gage Martin, a UTSA junior who is president of the Roadrunner Student Alumni Association. “It tells me that Roadrunners will take care of other Roadrunners, and it makes me proud to go to UTSA.”
Gifts made online can be processed and put to use immediately. If you’d like to make a gift using another method, please email alumni@utsa.edu.
