Below you will find answers to many common questions about I Heart TU 2025.
What is I Heart TU?
Each year, the Trinity University Student Ambassadors host events throughout campus that help the student community cultivate a culture of philanthropy and gratitude by thanking alumni donors, making gifts to the areas of campus they love, and paying it forward to current and future tigers by encouraging gifts to the areas of campus that directly impact students.
During I Heart TU, students are encouraged to support their favorite student org with a gift of $5 or more, and help their org win additional funds. Donors can also support the Raymond Judd Emergency Fund which supports students who are challenged to afford housing, transportation, and other basic needs, or those who face crises or difficulties.
When can I make my gift to the area of campus I love?
The Student Ambassadors are hosting our annual I ❤ TU event from February 11-13! This event gives you the opportunity to make a gift to support the Trinity student orgs you love and are passionate about, or the Raymond Judd Emergency Fund. You can give online or in-person at the following events:

Students and faculty/staff can stop by the on-campus tables to make a gift ($5 minimum), take part in fun activities, and spin the wheel to win a prize.
What if the area I want to give to isn’t listed?
Unfortunately, if your student organization is not registered with Student Life you cannot donate to it. If you believe your student org is supposed to be listed, please contact Wren Ramos, TUSA co-advisor, at wramos@trinity.edu.
If you'd like to support another area of campus, please visit our regular giving site at www.trinity.edu/give that has all giving options.
