An endowment is one of the most meaningful ways to create a lasting impact at Texas Tech University School of Law.

Endowments are permanent funds held by the Texas Tech Law School Foundation and invested to provide ongoing support for students, faculty, and academic priorities. While annual earnings are used each year, the original gift remains intact, ensuring that your contribution helps the Law School for generations to come.

Through a named endowment, a donor’s name—or the name of someone they wish to honor—becomes a permanent part of the Law School’s legacy.

What Is an Endowment?

An endowment provides long-term, reliable funding for the Law School's most important areas. Designed to last in perpetuity, endowments provide stability and continuity, supporting students and faculty year after year.

Endowments may support:

• Student scholarships
• Faculty excellence and academic leadership
• Research, teaching, and program innovation
