Donating to the Cathy Lester IT Excellence Memorial

How can I donate to the Cathy Lester IT Excellence Memorial?

Donations to the Memorial may be made in one of two ways:

• By completing the online form on the UT Austin GiveCampus website. The link prepopulates the form but you can select from the following options:
  • Gift Amount – Select $25, $50, $100, $250, $500, $1000, or enter an amount
  • Gift Frequency (optional) – Checkbox to make the donation a recurring gift
• For employees of the University of Texas at Austin, through payroll deduction via the VIP Direct site. Be sure to specify the Cathy Lester IT Excellence Endowment as the beneficiary in section 2 when you enroll.

Will my donation to the award fund be tax-deductible?

In most cases the full value of your gift is tax-deductible if you itemize deductions. Your gift will be acknowledged in writing for your tax records. However, please consult your tax advisor for exact details.
