Advancing the Island University Through Philanthropy

At TAM-CC, every student’s success matters — but many face financial or resource barriers. The Foundation partners with our community to remove those barriers. Through scholarships, endowed positions, and enhanced learning resources, we open doors for students, preparing them to excel and contribute.

The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Foundation

The Story

The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Foundation, formerly the Corpus Christi State University Foundation, was organized as a nonprofit corporation in December 1987. The Foundation’s mission is to promote the growth, quality and effectiveness of Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. It was conceived by people with a vision for the future and the will to make that vision a reality. Through the efforts and generosity of founding members Mr. and Mrs. Paul R. Haas, Mrs. John Allen King, Mrs. Margaret R. Turnbull, and many others, the Foundation now manages $32 million for the benefit of Texas A&M-Corpus Christi.
