The public phase of Texas Tech University's ambitious $1.2 billion fundraising campaign, **On & On**, was announced on October 18. This is the university's inaugural significant fundraising initiative to enhance academic excellence and broaden opportunities for students in Texas and beyond.

Texas Tech has already made substantial progress in its objective to raise the full amount over the course of eight years. During the silent portion of the campaign, the university secured $700 million from more than 75,000 donors. The initiative concentrates on four primary objectives: **Transform Lives, Fuel Academic Excellence, Elevate Campus & Community, and Build Champions**.

"This campaign represents a critical juncture in Texas Tech's history," stated President Lawrence Schovanec. "The purpose of On & On is not merely to raise funds; it is to influence the future of our university and its influence on Texas and beyond."

Texas Tech's dedication to student accomplishment is the cornerstone of the campaign. The university aims to remove financial obstacles to higher education by offering scholarships and support services to ensure that exceptional Texans can pursue their academic aims without financial burden. This emphasis is consistent with the university's objective to retain exceptional individuals within the state and promote their development through comprehensive developmental programs.

The university community is uniting to envision a brighter future that promises transformative educational experiences and enduring contributions to society as Texas Tech commences this historic campaign.
