About Us

The Virginia Tech Foundation, Inc. is located in scenic Blacksburg, Virginia, adjacent to the northwest corner of the Virginia Tech campus in the University Gateway Center. The foundation is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit nonstock corporation established in 1948, and provides private financial support to enable the forward progress of Virginia Tech. Through successful asset management and the generosity of Virginia Tech alumni and friends, the foundation continues to increase its real estate portfolio, endowment value, and support to university initiatives.

The foundation’s real estate portfolio includes properties across the state of Virginia as well as Switzerland. These properties range from innovational, such as the Corporate Research Center and the Virginia Tech Research Center-Arlington, to academic, which include the Center for European Studies & Architecture and the Reynolds Homestead, to recreational, which encompass The Hotel Roanoke and the Pete Dye River Course. This diverse portfolio provides program facilities and generates private resources to enable Virginia Tech to “Invent the Future”.
