WHAT IS THE CLASS GIFT?
Each year, graduating Longhorns celebrate the end of their journey at The University of Texas at Austin by rallying together to support the people, places and pursuits they care about most through the Class Gift. Students, families and friends can support future Longhorns by giving back to one of the highlighted funds or any area they are passionate about on campus.
