Campaign North Texas getting hot, Hot, HOT

Mercury levels are not the only thing reaching the century mark this summer. The thermometer gauging the rise in donations to UNT's Campaign North Texas: An Act of Leadership just passed $100 million.

"We are excited to reach this significant stage in funding," says Gene Vestal, associate vice president for development. "Our volunteers and staff are energized by donors' enthusiastic support of the university's goals."

UNT officials publicly announced Campaign North Texas in March with $95.5 million of a $150 million goal in hand. Another $50 million will be raised during the next three years.

"Current and future students will reap the benefits of our fund-raising efforts," says Vestal.
