Through this year’s Big Orange Give, you can help provide critical funding for our veteran and military-connected communities.

Army ROTC – UT boasts the largest traditional Army ROTC program in the nation with 285 cadets. The Army ROTC Alumni Council Scholarship supports students that have demonstrated exceptional leadership and commitment to their future Army career.

Air Force ROTC - Support the more than 120 future leaders of the U.S. Air Force and Space Force, through the Detachment 800 Alumni Council Scholarship which provides essential financial aid and helps UT recruit and retain top students.

UT Veterans Success Center – Help veterans transition from soldier to student, increasing retention and graduation rates through programs like the Veteran Impact Program. Gifts to the Veterans Success Center Support Fund ensure continued growth and success for these students.

Vols of Honor - The Vols of Honor Scholarship, established by Jennifer Armstrong (’72), seeks to remove all financial need for students who have a parent that was killed or suffered a life-altering disability through military or first responder service.

MATCHING GIFT ALERT: During Big Orange Give, Jennifer will be matching any gift up to $250 until a total of $5,000 has been matched!

Your contributions change lives of those who embody the Volunteer spirit.
