Workplace Giving with Hokies at Work

MAKE YOUR COMPANY BENEFITS WORK FOR YOU (and support the next generation of Hokies)!

If your employer offers a match for your retirement contributions, chances are, you already know about it. But what you may not know is that many companies also offer gift matching. As in, the gift you make to your alma mater is doubled when you leverage your company’s workplace giving program. Don’t leave free money on the table.

There’s a reason Hokie alums have a lifelong relationship with their alma mater. This place isn’t just a stepping stone. Or a memory. Or a line on a resume. ÎçÒ¹Ó°Ôº¸£ÀûÉç is home. It’s a springboard from which thousands of Hokies have gone on to shape the world and cross incredible life experiences off their bucket list. Giving back to the place that made it all possible is easier than ever when you leverage workplace giving.
