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.
Last year, the Foundation stood beside students, faculty, staff, alumni, donors and members of our extended community to commemorate the school’s Centennial anniversary. With 2025 in the rear view, we are honored to stand alongside those same people as we forge ahead into a new century of promise and progress at UBalt.
So many of our donors can trace their own success to their experiences at the University of Baltimore. That is why so many of them chose to celebrate one hundred years of UBalt excellence by establishing and supporting programs that will carry the University’s legacy of transformative learning, academic excellence and civic engagement into the future. The stories that follow are a testament to the continuing strength and impact of the University’s mission.
