Help improve the well-being of all Virginians

For over 100 years, Virginia Cooperative Extension has been a trusted source for knowledge, bringing the resources of Virginia Tech and Virginia State University directly to communities across the commonwealth.

Whether it’s assisting farmers and landowners, mentoring youth, growing local businesses, or helping people live healthier lives, Extension shares practical, research-based knowledge to help communities thrive.

We can’t do this important work without you.

With a gift to Virginia Cooperative Extension, you can support programs in your community and beyond that strengthen our agricultural and natural resources industries; empower more youth in 4-H and FFA leadership programs; protect the environment; educate individuals and families on gardening, business planning, health and nutrition; and so much more.

This Giving Day, please join us in helping all of Virginia thrive. Thank you for your support.
