The Southwestern Medical Foundation, which helps raise money for UT Southwestern, has announced more than a dozen new trustees.
To be a part of the charitable foundation’s board, the trustees agree to a three-year term. They’re eligible for re-election after two years. The newcomers include bank executives, CEOs, physicians, philanthropists, and international ambassadors. The foundation has helped offset the cost of the $800 million William P. Clements Jr. University Hospital and was integral in mobilizing the business community in the late 30s to fund the establishment of what became UT Southwestern.
