The Office of Foundation Relations serves as a connection point to the University of Houston — a top-tier research university. We connect students, faculty members, University of Houston programs and colleges with foundations.

Foundation Relations serves external constituencies by helping private foundations navigate the University of Houston System. We work with foundations to understand their strategic priorities and then make recommendations on how they can partner with the University of Houston through strategic philanthropic opportunities, including naming rights, scholarships, fellowships, faculty support, programmatic support and more.
