"Virginia Tech's Foundation Relations team has made all the difference for the Center for Humanities fundraising efforts. They have identified multiple funding opportunities, assisted with connecting to foundation contacts, and even offered valuable feedback on proposals. Tracy Krauchun and Adam Short in particular have leveraged their expertise and dynamic energy to set the humanities center on a solid path to funding success--all with generosity, professionalism, and valuable expertise. This robust support for vital fundraising is not just inspiring; it has been transformative!"
