MCV Society Celebrates $100M+ Future Impact on Campus
On a sunny spring evening this May, more than 130 guests gathered at the historic Branch Museum of Architecture and Design on Richmond’s Monument Avenue to celebrate the generosity and impact of donors who have planned a gift in support of the MCV Campus.
“This is among our favorite events each year,” said Margaret Ann Bollmeier, president and CEO of the MCV Foundation. “We always enjoy celebrating and thanking our MCV Society donors for their commitment to patient care, research and education on the MCV Campus.”
Each year, membership in the MCV Society continues to grow. This year, the foundation welcomed 27 new members into the society. Total MCV Society membership exceeds 650 individuals, making it the single largest giving society to benefit the MCV Campus.
The society was founded in 1994 to recognize and thank those who have included any of the MCV Campus schools or units in their estate plans.
The impact of such planned giving for the MCV Campus is remarkable. These generous gifts will provide future support to a wide range of causes across the MCV Campus. This fiscal year, new documented planned gifts and realized bequests reached $21 million, and the total value of planned gifts documented for the MCV Campus exceeds an astounding $100 million.
“Through their generosity, these donors have made a significant investment in the future of health care that will touch every area of the MCV Campus,” Bollmeier said. “Because of them, VCU and the VCU Health System will continue to flourish, save lives, and prepare the next generation of health care leaders. We cannot thank them enough for all that they do.”
