HokieMatic (Electronic Funds Transfer and Payroll Deduction) The HokieMatic electronic transfer option allows the donor to have his or her annual donation drafted with even payments on a monthly basis from a specified banking account; either checking or savings accounts are acceptable. Drafts will occur automatically on either the 15th or 30th of each month as specified by the member. The Hokie Scholarship Fund will automatically renew the donor’s HokieMatic donations each year until directed otherwise by the donor. Matching Gifts You may be able to increase your level of giving by matching your gift with matching funds from your employer. If your employer will match gifts to the Virginia Tech Athletic Fund, please enclose your employer’s form with your contribution. Also, please note that matching gifts must be received by the Hokie Club office prior to March 31, 2018. Gifts- In-Kind Donated items or services that would normally be purchased by the Virginia Tech Athletics Department are considered gifts-in-kind and are always appreciated. Subject to approval and IRS regulations, the value of the contribution would be credited to your cumulative giving amount. NOTE: Gift-In-Kind Donations will not qualify for Hokie Scholarship Seating contributions. Gifts of Securities Stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc. are accepted and appreciated by the Virginia Tech Athletic Fund. These gifts typically involve publicly traded shares, such as those traded on the major exchanges and over the counter, as well as most mutual funds. Gifts of privately held stock, though more complex, are also possible. Supporting Virginia Tech with a gift of securities can provide significant tax benefits for the donor, bypassing capital gains taxes and providing a valuable income tax deduction—both of which effectively reduce the cost of making a gift. Planned/ Estate Gifts Gifts in the form of life income gifts (charitable remainder trust, charitable gift annuity), charitable lead trusts, and/or bequests are common ways to state your intentions of leaving a future gift to Virginia Tech Athletics while receiving substantial income, estate, and gift tax benefits now. Donor Advised Funds, Private Foundations & IRAs Please note the Virginia Tech Athletic Fund and Virginia Tech Foundation cannot accept contributions subject to the 80 percent rule from any private foundation, donor advised fund, or IRA rollover. Contributions from those sources may only be applied to a gift that is 100 percent tax deductible. Please consult your tax advisor for more information.
