We started in 1925 in Baltimore with a simple mission—to offer access to life-changing educational opportunities tailored to working adults. In the evening hours, long after traditional schools closed, students came to our urban campus to achieve their goals, one class at a time.
Those classes—and how they are offered—have evolved, but our mission holds true. We will always be different by design. Our students come to us with unmatched passion, grow with us into the leaders they want to be, and make a meaningful impact through civic engagement in their communities here and around the world.
For over half a century, The University of Baltimore Foundation has served as the
entity that raises and manages privately-sourced financial support for the University,
in addition to providing leadership, guidance and support to school administration
in advancing the mission and vision of UBalt.
As the University of Baltimore begins its hundredth year, the Foundation will celebrate the school’s proud past and bright future right alongside. We didn’t need to look back over 100 years of stories to find ones that honor the spirit of the Centennial—there are plenty to be had in FY2024. And nothing exemplifies this spirit more than the people whose rich history with the University inspired them to help pave the way for future generations of UBalt students to ignite the world with purpose.
So many of our donors attribute their own success to their experiences at the University of Baltimore. Their generous support directly enhances the opportunities for transformative learning, academic excellence and civic engagement that shape the success of past, present and future UBalt graduates. These stories are a testament to the strength and impact of the University’s mission.
