An amazing, record-breaking #VTGivingDay. Thanks for your support, Hokies. 🧡
What happens when you give Hokies around the world 24 hours to step up for Virginia Tech? More than 24,000 Hokies raise more than $21 million for the things that matter most to them. 🧡 This is one for the records book. THANK YOU for stepping up on #VTGivingDay!
