The latest news from Virginia Commonwealth University

What is philanthropy? It’s showing love for VCU through service and financial support to make the university the best it can be for current students and future generations. 

This Philanthropy Week, April 21-24, we’ll discuss how donor generosity has positively impacted the VCU experience. During this week of fun, special events, students will get the chance to share what they love about VCU, say thanks to donors and enjoy free swag and treats.
