Now is the Time to Invest to Win!

On Giving Day 2026, you have the opportunity to strengthen the future of Virginia Tech student-athletes during a critical juncture in time for collegiate athletics nationally. Your generosity fuels their growth in competition, in the classroom, and in the community. 

Here’s how your support can make a meaningful difference:

Hokie Scholarship Fund 

Your contribution to the Hokie Scholarship Fund helps offset the rising cost of providing scholarships to Virginia Tech student-athletes. These gifts ensure they receive a premier Virginia Tech education while striving for excellence in their sport. Donors also receive exclusive benefits, including credit toward the required per-seat gift for football and men’s basketball season tickets. 

Invest To Win Fund 

The Invest to Win Fund is a flexible, high-impact resource that allows our administration to respond to urgent needs and emerging opportunities. This unrestricted support ensures that when a window opens to make a key investment, whether it’s retaining top coaches or enhancing athlete support services, we’re financially prepared to act. 

Sport-Specific Support 

By giving directly to one of Virginia Tech’s 22 varsity programs, you help student-athletes compete at the highest level. Sport-specific gifts enhance critical needs—travel, equipment, and opportunities related to name, image, and likeness. Your investment directly strengthens the team you’re most passionate about and elevates the entire Hokie athletics experience. 

Additional Impact Areas 

Virginia Tech offers numerous programs dedicated to student-athlete health, growth, and holistic development. You can direct your Giving Day gift to areas such as Sports Medicine, Sport Psychology, Student-Athlete Development, Athletic Training, or the For Those to Come Endowment. These resources ensure Hokies are supported mentally, physically, and emotionally as they pursue their goals. 

Don’t Miss the Deadline! 

To receive benefits tied to the Hokie Scholarship Fund for the 2026–27 athletics year, gifts must be made by March 1, 2026. Secure your benefits and support Hokie student-athletes by making your contribution before the deadline. Your generosity empowers Hokies to chase excellence in every arena of their lives. Make your gift today and help shape the next chapter of Virginia Tech Athletics!
