Staff Council
ALL PAWS IN TO WELCOME COOGS!

The UH Staff Council proudly serves as the heart of campus engagement, fostering collaboration among staff, faculty and students while inspiring meaningful connections. On Giving Day, we invite you to join us in continuing a beloved tradition that helps thousands of students navigate the first days of the school year with confidence and excitement.


SUPPORT COUGAR FIRST IMPRESSIONS

Cougar First Impressions is a signature Staff Council event dedicated to welcoming new and returning Coogs to campus. Taking place during the first two days of each fall semester, this initiative provides students with directions, resources, cold water, fun swag and, most importantly, a warm welcome.

Your gift to the Cougar First Impressions Fund ensures we can:

  • Provide students with helpful resources and advice to navigate campus.
  • Supply cold water and giveaway items to make their first days more enjoyable.
  • Continue fostering a sense of community and support for thousands of students.

By supporting this iconic event, you help Staff Council create a welcoming environment where students feel connected and prepared to thrive.


In honor of UH's 98th birthday, when 98 faculty or staff make a gift of any size to any designation, an additional $1,000 will be unlocked for Staff Council Support for Cougar First Impressions. To participate, be sure to select faculty/staff as your affiliation on the donation page!
