Bonus Points:
  Gifts made during the first three quarters of the
calendar year earn additional points:
 
  • 1st quarter pledge x .05
  • 2nd quarter pledge x .03
  • 3rd quarter pledge x .01
Consecutive Year Points:
  Number of consecutive years of giving x 10
Cumulative Points:
  Every dollar contributed to the Virginia Athletics
Foundation since 1971 x .02
Fifteen Year Reward:
  Donors who have contributed between 15 and 24 years consecutively earn an additional 50 points
Twenty-Five Year Reward:
  Donors who have contributed 25 or more consecutive years earn an additional 100 points
