Established in 2008, the Foundation is committed to helping provide financial resources to ensure the success and permanence of A&M-San Antonio. The current focus of the board is fundraising for immediate scholarships and establishing endowments to create an ongoing source of scholarship funds. Since the Foundation’s inception, it has partnered with the University to raise more than $12.9 million in philanthropic support. During that time, the Foundation has awarded scholarships to more than 6,700 students through its two annual fundraising events: The Dream Maker Scholarship Celebration and the Scholarship Golf Tournament.

The Foundation's Board of Directors are uncompensated volunteers committed to support A&M-San Antonio and its students. The Foundation's operations are guided by the Foundation By-Laws and the Affiliation Agreement signed between the Foundation and the University. The Foundation is a 501(C)3 nonprofit organization registers with both the IRS and the Texas Secretary of State. 

Since the Texas A&M San Antonio Foundation (TAMSAF) was formed in 2008, more than $3-million has been contributed by friends for support of scholarships and endowments for students with financial need. Examples of these scholarships and endowments can be found below.
