Through the contributions of these benefactors, UTC Athletics is able to construct impressive and competitive facilities while also striving to ensure a great future for intercollegiate athletics through scholarships and endowments.

Life Income Gifts: Charitable remainder trusts can provide current tax advantages while providing the donor with income for a designated period of time or for life. They provide the Athletic Department with an endowed scholarship or operating fund gift upon the completion of the trust or donor's death. You also are encouraged to consult your tax advisor. Benefits for these gifts must be evaluated on an individual case basis.
Endowments: Athletic endowments at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga provide a permanent source of income to support student-athletes and allow them to develop and compete for championships each year. Endowments may be established and named with a commitment of at least $25,000. These help to ensure that future generations of student-athletes will have the opportunity to become part of the Chattanooga family.
