Support TBI

TBI Endowment:

The University of San Diego is a non-profit organization with 501(c)3 status, meaning that donations to the Trans-Border Institute are tax deductible. TBI is seeking private donations to support its basic operation and expand its programs to better serve the University and the border community as a resource for academic and policy-relevant analysis and a forum for public dialogue about key issues affecting the U.S.-Mexican border. Over the next ten years, TBI hopes to build an endowment of $3 million. Earnings from this endowment will be used to expand TBI's staff and operations, to provide grants to faculty and students studying border issues, and to develop informational resources on the U.S.-Mexican border.

TBI invites inquiries from individual donors and corporate sponsors interested in creating special scholarships or awards to promote border studies and cross-border exchange. For example, corporate sponsors interested in sponsoring an annual lecture series or a series of policy studies relevant to their areas of interest are invited to contact TBI at (619) 260-4090 to discuss possibilities for cooperation.

TBI also welcomes support from private foundations for specific research projects and activities in areas of pressing concern along the border. Presently, TBI is prepareing for major research initiatives on the issues of rule-of-law in Mexico and along the border, economic development and microcredit lending, and border journalism. In seeking funds from private foundations, TBI welcomes collaboration as a partner with other institutions, particularly in Mexico.
