The Garry Weber Foundation announced its $50 million donation towards the construction of the Weber End Zone Project in Ford Stadium Friday, Jan. 21. The donation is the largest gift in the history of SMU Athletics.
The donation is part of a $100 million effort to transition Ford Stadium into a more premium three-story, 192,500-square-foot sports complex. Besides a new end zone, the donation will go towards constructing new training, coaching and meeting facilities.
“I’m so pleased I can do this,” Garry Weber ’58 said of his foundation’s donation.
