2018-19 University Advancement Annual Report

University Advancement Annual Report 2018-2019

Because of the generosity of friends and donors, FY 2018-19 was another record-breaking year in fundraising for University Advancement.

Overall commitments grew to a record $61 million, including the largest gift in university history — $30 million from G. Brint Ryan (’88, ’88 M.S.) and his wife, Amanda. The UNT endowment surpassed $200 million for the first time, foundation partnerships increased and legacy giving is at a three-year high.

“The numbers are exciting, but there’s so much more to UNT’s story,” says David Wolf, vice president for university advancement. “As we reach milestones in fundraising, our students and faculty are able to aim higher, fly further and become the leaders our future needs. When we break records, we change real lives.”
