Give

A gift to the Bush School of Government & Public Service is an investment in the future of our communities, state, nation, and world.

Next to my family, the Bush School students and their interest in serving their country is the most important thing in my life. I feel very good about leaving our world in their hands.

Stories of Impact

Amy ’84 and Tim Leach ’82 have generously committed a $1 million gift to The Bush School to establish the Randy Sims ’61 Endowed Chair for City & County Governance, bolstering the City and County Governance Program and empowering the training of principled local government leaders across Texas. Named in honor of Randy Sims ’61—a beloved former Aggie, restaurateur, and dedicated public servant—the endowment will expand program offerings and inspire future public servants to serve their communities with listening hearts, keen integrity, and steadfast respect.
