Fundraisers
Throughout the year we hold several fundraising events in order to support the various activities VT ASME is involved in. These activities allow students to remain actively engaged in a successful, and one of the most active ASME student sections in the world.
- T-Shirt/Polo/Hoodie Sales: These sales are on-going throughout the year. Check out our gear in the display case in the main lobby of Randolph.
- 2nd Annual ASME Date Auction: This largely successful event is now being held annually during SEC’s E-Week in the spring semester. Half of the proceeds are donated to the American Cancer Society to raise awareness of cancer. This year's date auction takes place on February 27th at Champs Bar. Check the Calendar for details.
