The Longhorn Band
Legacy Challenge

The Longhorn Band has been ringing cowbells, shaking fringe and raising the spirits of Longhorn Nation for generations. Through the Legacy Challenge, your generosity can make a difference today and create an impact that lasts for generations to come. With your help, the Showband of the Southwest will stand tall in the SEC as the country’s best — and best-supported — band.

When you document a new or increased planned gift for the band, the President’s Development Board will designate additional challenge funds to the Longhorn Band Legacy Fund — a permanent endowment for the Showband of the Southwest! Challenge funds are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis, so don’t delay!
