We were grilled to see the students' smiles!
The amozzing volunteers gathered in the Goodall Room to serve up smiles and melty comfort for hungry Hokies during the last night of Cheesy Nights.
Cheesy Nights is made possible through your generosity and the efforts of close to 100 volunteers throughout the four nights.
Even the littlest Hokies were giving our students smiles and encouragement for finals week.
The first floor of the library was full of fun with the Big Cheese being extra cheesy. Students made sure they didn't swiss out!
Thank you for making a gift to Cheesy Nights. Funds from caring Hokies purchase all snacks, sandwich ingredients, and supplies used during Cheesy Nights. We can't do this without you!
We will do it again in May! Can't wait!
Despite the freezing temperatures, volunteers ensured the cheese stayed melty
With the forecasted below wind chills, we cranked up the electric skillets a little earlier today to get toasty. Cheesy Nights continued for a third night as volunteers buttered, cheesed, grilled the night away.
Students appreciated the warm sandwich full of comfort with sides of fruit, salty and sweet snacks, and hot chocolate.
Students enjoyed the study break with friends and full bellies.
Thank you for your generosity and for giving Hokies the fuel they need to succeed during finals week. We'll be back tomorrow for the fourth and final night of Cheesy Nights.
The melt cannot be stopped!
The melt cannot be stopped! We served more than 2500 sandwiches to hungry Hokies during night two!
Thank you for supporting Hokies when the stress is high, and staying fueled may not be top of mind. Cheesy Nights gives them the encouragement they need to stay strong and power through their tests and projects.
Thank you for your generous support of a favorite finals-week tradition.
We will be back on Sunday for the third night of Cheesy Nights!
It was cold outside but we turned up the heat!
The first night of Cheesy Nights was full of melty magic! It was cold outside, but the grills brought the heat, and we fueled thousands of students during their study break.
Finals fuel = Butter + Bread + Cheese with a side of encouragement!
Students were all smiles as they grabbed a study snack with friends. Thank you for supporting Hokies during finals week.
Cheesy Nights is possible because of your support. Your gift truly makes a difference for stressed-out Hokies, one cheesy bite at a time.
We will be back tomorrow for night two of Cheesy Nights. We're grilled with excitement!
