As a graduate of Virginia Western, you know better than anyone the life-changing impact an education from Western can have. While the cost to attend Virginia Western is less than half of that to attend an in-state public college or university, many members of our community continue to struggle with the costs of attendance. With 80% of our students working at least part-time while enrolled in classes and one out of three Virginia Western students being a parent, our students often do not have the luxury of concentrating only on their studies.

While you are a part of our past, you are also a part of our future! As a graduate of Virginia Western your accomplishments are a source of pride for us, bringing recognition to the College while your degree also reflects Virginia Western's good reputation in our community. Our strength is your strength.

By financially supporting Virginia Western Community College, you are not only helping to ensure current and future students receive the same great education you did, but also ensuring Virginia Western is able to meet the needs of the Roanoke Valley for generations to come! Every gift makes a difference and you may designate your gift to support the scholarship, program, or initiative of your choice.
