40 Hours for the Forty Acres is The University of Texas at Austin’s Annual Day of Giving   

For 40 Hours, Longhorn Nation – alumni, students, faculty, staff, parents and friends – come together to support the UT people, places and pursuits they care about most!   

We only have 40 hours to make an impact, and we need your help! 

40 for Forty advocates play a key role in inspiring other to give. In fact, during our last campaign, ambassadors helped raise over half of all gifts because people are more likely to give when asked by a peer, friend, colleague or family member. Your participation makes a huge difference! 

As a 40 for Forty ambassador, you’ll: 

🧡 Give to the UT causes that mean the most to you. 

🔊 Amplify the campaign by sharing 40 for Forty on social media.

🤘 Engage your network with personal messages to friends, family and colleagues. 

🎁 Earn exclusive swag for reaching gift milestones.   



Use our helpful advocate toolkit and social media toolkit to help you get started!
