Hispanic Faculty/Staff Association (HFSA) at UT Austin

The HFSA John C. Treviño Jr. Holiday Assistance program is in full swing, and our goal is to create a memorable holiday season for faculty and staff members and their families by providing a holiday meal! 🍗

In the true spirit of the holiday season, please consider donating by visiting the link in our bio. Whether it’s $5, $10, or any other amount you can spare, your donation will directly touch the lives of our Longhorn Faculty and Staff. Your contributions directly purchase ingredients, assist with meal packaging, and ensure the timely distribution of holiday meals to those in need.

We want to extend our biggest thank you, for choosing to help us in our mission ensuring that Longhorn Faculty and Staff and their families enjoy a plentiful holiday season! 🤘

Saludos familia!
