Giving Tuesday - Richmond Campus Holiday Tree
WE REACHED OUR GOAL! Please don't let that stop you from experiencing the joy of giving. We are still accepting donations for a few more days.
THANK YOU JENNA HAMPTON, COCHRAN & ASSOCIATES,
FOR THE GENEROUS MATCH!
WOW! We have a generous donor who will match every $1 you contribute toward this project up to $2,500! Thank you Jenna Hampton, Cochran & Associates, for helping us reach our $5,000 goal! Experience the joy of giving by providing a hand up for our students and your gift will truly make an impact!
'Tis the Season!
During this day of giving, please join the Ivy Tech Richmond employee family in helping the children of Ivy Tech students have a wonderful Christmas.
Ivy Tech students sometimes cannot afford basic necessities, let alone Christmas gifts for their child(ren). An annual tradition for the Ivy Tech Richmond campus is supporting our students by accepting donations of cash or gifts for Christmas presents for their child(ren). Students register their children at the Richmond campus. They provide the ages of their children (up to 18) and wish lists. We hang an ornament on the tree representing the children and their wish list. The tree is always full and there are times we have to turn students away because there are not enough funds to buy gifts for everyone. College staff shops for gifts using the donated funds. Students pick up the gifts right before the campus' holiday break.
The Ivy Tech Richmond employee family will make sure your gift will make an impact this holiday season. We will send you an email letting you know how your gift was used. Thank you in advance for your consideration!

Every gift makes an impact...
The needs are many. We have learned that all gifts are important; when we combine our giving (at whatever level), we learn that we really do change lives.
