Annual Phonathon

Support Students Who Make a Difference, Increase the Rate When You Participate

Who We Are...
The University of Texas-Pan American Phonathon program reaches out to alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and friends to get them involved in the Annual Giving campaign. The Phonathon is staffed entirely by UTPA students who provide a firsthand perspective on UTPA and can explain why annual giving is crucial to UTPA’s excellence. Our mission is to increase alumni participation and support as well as keep our alumni and friends connected to the University. Last year our phonathon resulted in gifts totaling $18,000. Our goal this year is to raise over $20,000.

When is Phonathon?
Our student callers typically call from February to May and September to November.

Where is the Phonathon held?
The Phonathon takes place at the Alumni Office on the main campus.

What Should I Say When A Student Calls Me?
This is an excellent opportunity to get updates on what is happening at UTPA while making your annual pledge to support student scholarships and departmental initiatives within your college or program. The student callers are ready to share their stories and information!

Phonathon Sponsors

Many local businesses have pledged their support to the Phonathon through incentives which are awarded to callers who go above and beyond the call of duty. We in the Phonathon would like to thank them for their support.
