Programs & Initiatives
Various programs and initiatives have been established to achieve fundraising goals and give special recognition to donors.
2027 Men's Basketball Seating Plan
The 2027-28 Virginia Men's Basketball Seating Plan is being implemented for various reasons, including the fact that all current seating agreements will expire at the conclusion of the 2026-27 men's basketball season. These upcoming seat license expirations create opportunities for renewal, reassessment, and revenue to ensure long-term sustainability and fan engagement.
1.15.41 Memorial Fund
The Virginia Athletics Foundation and Virginia Athletics have announced the creation of the 1.15.41 Memorial Scholarship Fund. The fund will honor the lives of Virginia football players Lavel Davis Jr. (No. 1), Devin Chandler (No.15) and D'Sean Perry (No. 41). The three UVA students were killed in the shooting tragedy on Grounds on Nov. 13, 2022.
