VCU Families

Rams, we’re back at it 💛🐏

Join us tomorrow from 10am to 3pm at The Compass for Herd, Hugs, and High Fives. Stop by for a quick pick me up and a little something to brighten your day.

Come through, bring a friend, and let’s spread some RAMily joy! We can’t wait to see you. 🎉

Upcoming Herd Hugs and High-Fives event! The VCU Family Council will be on-site on April 23 from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM at The Compass, sharing snacks, encouragement, and a little extra joy with our students.

As parents of students at Virginia Commonwealth University, we know how meaningful it is for our Rams to feel supported — especially during busy and sometimes stressful times in the semester. This event is a simple but powerful way to remind them that their families and community are cheering them on.

You can help us make this successful by sending an item from our Amazon Wish List. If you have any questions, please reach out to the VCU Family Council at [email protected].
