Our Crowdfunding Groups
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to all our student organizations who continue using HornRaiser to fulfill their fundraising needs. Your work and dedication make an impact at The University of Texas at Austin, and we are grateful for your partnership. As we look ahead, the HornRaiser team wants to share some important updates.
Over the next few months, the HornRaiser site will be undergoing maintenance as we transition to a new and improved online platform. During this period, our team is working to ensure that the new platform will offer a seamless and enhanced experience for all participants.
These improvements are taking place as part of a wider initiative to enhance the overall digital experience for the UT Austin community, but it will take time to successfully implement these updates. For that reason, we will not be accepting any HornRaiser applications for the Spring 2025 semester.
We understand this may cause some inconvenience for some of our student organizations and we apologize in advance. However, we know these vital changes will position groups like yours to better fundraise for your causes in the future. Thank you in advance for your flexibility and patience during this transition.
We plan to start accepting HornRaiser applications during the summer for the fall 2025 cohort on our new platform.
Other fundraising opportunities:
We look forward to hosting you on our new platform soon! We appreciate your patience as we work towards creating a fresh, exciting look and experience for HornRaiser.
