2024 Homecoming Giving Challenge
Set your Homecoming Out by Giving Back!
This year’s Homecoming Giving Challenge is all about YOU—our alumni—who continue to inspire the next generation of PVAMU legends. This year’s homecoming theme is “Legends and Legacies,” and now is your chance to leave a lasting impact.
