Faculty, staff encouraged to support Gold Blue and You campaign

West Virginia University faculty and staff have the opportunity to invest in their University through the WVU Foundation’s Gold Blue and You Campus Campaign which kicked off on Monday!

Through the Campus Campaign, WVU employees can give to programs or funds across the University and WVU Medicine they feel passionately about, including scholarship funds, specific departments/units, academic programs, and special faculty/student support initiatives.  

During the 2016 Campaign, more than 1,400 WVU faculty and staff gave nearly $2 million. These gifts supported education, research, faculty, staff and student experiences.

Donations to the Gold Blue and You Campaign can be made through payroll deduction for as little as $3.00 per paycheck, per fund designation. Contributions may also be made by phone at 304-284-4000 or online at www.goldblueandyou.com.  Descriptions of funds and more information on giving can also be found at the Campaign website.  All WVU faculty and staff will be receiving printed materials about the Campaign and further information on how to contribute.

Contributions to the Campus Campaign are made in conjunction with A State of Minds: The Campaign for West Virginia’s University. The fundraising effort by the WVU Foundation on behalf of the University runs through December.
