Family Giving

As parents and grandparents, you play a vital role in shaping the journey of your student during their time at Randolph-Macon — not only through your love and guidance, but also through your philanthropic support.

Your gifts are a powerful way to enhance the RMC experience for every student, ensuring access to the full range of opportunities that make a college education transformative.

Why Your Support Matters

• Amplifies Impact: Collective giving from families allows the College to respond to emerging needs and sustain excellence across all areas of campus life.  Your support fuels need-based scholarships, supports dynamic faculty, advances student wellness, and enriches the co-curricular programs that help students grow into thoughtful, engaged citizens.
• Signals Commitment: Your participation sends a strong message — to the College, to other families, and most importantly, to your student — that you believe in the mission of RMC and are committed to its continued success.
• Sets an Example: When students see their parents and grandparents investing in their education and future, it fosters a deeper appreciation for philanthropy, inspiring a lifelong habit of giving back.

Ways to Participate

• Annual Giving: Gifts to our Annual Fund from parents and families make an impact every day – enhancing the student experience and supporting institutional priorities here and now.
• Yellow Jacket Club: For parents who are also fans! Many of our family donors support our student-athlete experience and are also members of the Yellow Jacket Club.
• Special Priorities: We believe philanthropy should match your values, and many families chose to align their giving to what matters most to them by designating their gift to an existing fund, endowment, scholarship, etc. Interested in creating a new designation?
