In February 2023, Virginia Tech Athletics and the Hokie Club announced Elevate Her, a comprehensive campaign to support and uplift women’s athletics in Blacksburg. Hundreds of members of Hokie Nation have answered the call to invest in the future of Tech’s women student-athletes, and now you can do so during Triumph Together 2023!
This fund helps meet the greatest needs of each Hokie women’s team and generates leadership development opportunities that benefit over 240 women student-athletes. From winter and summer scholarships to enhanced nutrition and sport performance technologies, Elevate Her supplies a platform to uplift, empower, and encourage our women as they chase their athletic and academic dreams. Each gift will uplift Hokie women as they pursue the pillars of Championships, Equity, and Leadership.
“At Virginia Tech we are committed to providing a first-class experience for our student-athletes. Supporting women's athletics initiatives allows our student-athletes the opportunity to achieve their academic and athletic goals. We can't do this without the support of generous donors who understand the value of the holistic development of Hokie student-athletes.” - Reyna Gilbert-Lowry, Senior Associate Athletic Director, Alumni Engagement and Inclusive Excellence
Tremendous progress has been made throughout the first half century of Title IX. And now, Hokie Nation, it's time to Elevate Her for the Next 50.
