Student Philanthropy

At Radford University, our commitment is to build awareness in students by practicing the three G's:

Generosity

Generosity is at the heart of all Highlanders. The reasons for many scholarships, programs and other opportunities at Radford University are made possible because of the generosity of alumni, donors and students just like you. Your generosity helps grow the spirit of giving back at Radford University. We invite students to learn more about donor generosity through trivia events and on-campus scavenger hunts that help students see named buildings and facilities on campus and the donors who made those spaces possible through their financial support.

Gratitude

We recognize the generosity of our donors who selflessly give to pay it forward, and we make a deeper connection by expressing our gratitude through events that give students the opportunity to personally thank donors for their support. Events such as Thank-a-thon and the Partners in Excellence Celebration are opportunities for students to make personal connections with donors and gain a greater understanding of what their gifts make possible.

Giving Back

Giving back is an expression of our #HighlanderPride. All of our generous donors made a first gift at some point in time. You can direct your philanthropy so that you, too, can make a positive impact on current and future Radford University students in an area that has been significant in your Highlander journey. When you give, you're supporting the future of a Highlander just like you! You may direct your gift to your college, a department, an athletic team, the arts, student emergency funds and so much more.

How will you give?

Be the reason a future Highlander can share your Radford University experience!

Although our college experience has been far from normal, we have been resilient and here we are nearing graduation at Radford! As Highlanders, we believe in giving back and supporting our #RadfordFamily. We stand on the shoulders of those who came before us and strive to make a difference in the lives of those who come after us.

The Highlander Senior Class Scholarship is an excellent opportunity for you to pay it forward. Begin your legacy and support a rising senior by giving to the Highlander Senior Class Scholarship! All gifts of $20.23 or larger will receive a philanthropy cord in recognition of your generosity.
