In recognition of her impact on health care education and patient care throughout South Texas, the Teresa Lozano Long Memorial Scholarship honors the beloved memory of Mrs. Long, who died March 21, 2021, at the age of 92.
This memorial endowment offers everyone an opportunity to honor Mrs. Long’s memory by “paying it forward” the way she and her husband, Joe R. Long, have done for deserving UT Health San Antonio students throughout the years. Her legacy lives on in more than 307 physicians, nurses, health professionals and MD/PhD students whose education at UT Health San Antonio was funded by scholarships from the Longs.
The couple, who were married for 63 years, changed the future of the Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine and UT Health San Antonio. Their philanthropy, which exceeds $70 million to UT Health, includes funding scholarships to first-generation college graduates who can graduate free of debt and return to their South Texas hometowns, where health care is desperately needed.
