Tribute Gifts
Memorial gifts honoring loved ones
If you have recently suffered the loss of a loved one and would like to ask family and friends to make a memorial donation to VCU Health or one of its patient care units, we are here to help.
Memorial gifts can be made online or mailed to:
VCU Gifts & Records
Box 843042
Richmond, VA 23284-3042
Please include the name of the person in whose memory you are donating, and include the name and address of the person, family or group you would like us to notify about your thoughtful gesture. Donation amounts are not included in our notification cards, and your gift is fully tax deductible.
If you have questions, or need assistance determining the name of a specific fund, contact Michelle Holder, stewardship coordinator, at (804) 827-4935 or at holderm2@vcu.edu.
To assure that gifts are properly directed to the fund of your choice, please include the following language in any printed announcement or obituary:
“In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the MCV Foundation in support of [CENTER OR FUND], noting on the check's memo line that the gift is in memory of [LOVED ONE’S NAME], and mailed to VCU Gifts & Records, Box 843042, Richmond, VA 23284-3042.”
Each person who remembers your loved one with a gift will receive a note of thanks for their generosity and a gift receipt from our office. It will be our pleasure to share the names and contact information of those who give with your designated family representative, so that you may thank donors personally if you wish. We will include a total of what has been raised in memoriam in each report
