About the UAH FoundationThe University of Alabama Huntsville Foundation supports university fund-raising activities and provides asset management services to perpetuate educational excellence at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH).The foundation is a private, nonprofit corporation with its own board of trustees. Established in 1962, the foundation exists solely for the benefit of UAH. Q: Why does UAH need private gifts? A: UAH receives less than 35 percent of its budget from State revenues. Private donors provide the additional support needed to sustain UAH’s tradition of excellence. Q: What does the foundation do with gifts? A: The foundation disburses funds in accordance with the donors’ wishes. Endowed gifts are invested in The University of Alabama System Pooled Endowment Fund to maximize return. Q: Why is the foundation separate? A: Since the foundation is a private, nonprofit organization, donors are assured that: 1) their gifts will benefit the programs they have designated; 2) their gifts will be protected from reallocation by the state; and 3) their giving records will remain private.
