Who should I contact with questions about my contribution?
Contact the Office of Development at (813) 253-6220 or send an email to annualfund@ut.edu with any questions about your gift.
How can I support an existing or new Endowment?
If you are interested in supporting an endowment fund or any other specialized gift, please contact the Development Office at (813) 253-6220 so that we can assist.
Can I make an online gift to a program I don't see listed?
Yes, while undesignated gifts are useful because they allow UT to meet its most urgent immediate needs, gifts to all areas are appreciated and have a positive impact on our University. Contact the Office of Development at (813) 253-6220 or send an email to annualfund@ut.edu with any questions about your gift.
Are gifts tax deductible?
Absolutely! All gifts to The University of Tampa are tax-deductible. Please note, sometimes if you receive a cool perk (such as a ticket to an event, for example) that has a fair market price and, following IRS policy guidelines, the cost of that ticket is deducted from your total tax-deductible amount.
Will I receive a receipt for my contribution?
Yes, UT will send you a gift receipt via email for tax purposes.
Is my gift eligible for employer/corporate matching?
Yes. Note that it can take several months for employers' matching funds to reach UT. In the event the match does not arrive before the project deadline or the end of the fiscal year, it will still be applied to the same fund.
The University of Tampa seeks to enhance the diversity of its students, faculty and staff in the belief that doing so contributes to a more impactful learning environment for everyone in the UT community.

Use of Donor Information: Donor information is used to complete the transaction, record the donation, generate the appropriate tax receipt, and to appropriately acknowledge each gift donation. Donor records are also used for general record keeping and internal analysis. Credit card information is used to process the gift, but is not retained. The University of Tampa does not rent, market or otherwise disclose donor information to any outside party or vendor for non-University purposes, unless required under law. Within the University, access to donor information is limited to University staff members with a need to know. Staff members are bound by a professional code of ethics and a "Donor Bill of Rights.”
Donor Recognition: The University of Tampa enjoys providing donors with recognition for their gifts through print, spoken and/or Web-based media. However, you may choose to waive this recognition and make a gift anonymously. Please contact the Development Office if you would like your gift to be anonymous. We will always respect your decision to keep a gift confidential.
Email Opt-Out: The University of Tampa communicates with donors on a regular basis via email through our alumni community. We provide a method to opt-out of receiving a particular category of email, or all UT emails, at the bottom of every email sent via our alumni email system.
Email Opt-In/Choice: By default, you are opted-in to UT emails. If you have opted-out of UT emails and wish to opt-in again, you may do so by updating your profile on our alumni system.
