The UH Athletics Department received a $10 million pledge to support its plans for constructing a new Football Development Center, it announced on Friday morning.
The donation was made through the athletic department’s Houston Rise campaign, started for the preparation leading up to the University’s highly anticipated move to the Big 12 Conference on July 1, 2023.
The eight-figure gift, sourced by an anonymous donor, is by far the biggest donation to date since the launch of the Houston Rise fundraising campaign.
“This incredibly generous gift brings us one step closer to a new home for Houston Football as we continue to invest in and strengthen all of our athletics programs,” said University of Houston president Renu Khator.
