As we enter our Season of Gratitude, we pause to celebrate you — our cherished alumni, devoted friends and the remarkable Central College community that makes our college thrive. From inspiring professors who mentor students with passion and purpose, to generous donors and dedicated volunteers, you are the heart of what makes Central special. Whether you graduated decades ago or recently joined our Forever Dutch® family, your connection to Central shapes lives and futures in ways both seen and unseen.
This November, we warmly invite you to deepen your impact alongside us. On Thankful Thursday, Nov.19, we’re launching a special giving initiative, and we’d be honored to have you join us with a gift to the Journey Scholarship Fund. Your donation to Thankful Thursday — no matter the size — will be matched, doubling your impact for the Journey Scholarship Fund!
Every gift is a testament to your belief in our students’ potential and our shared mission. Beyond financial support, we encourage you to log and submit your volunteer hours. Your service and mentorship embody the Central values we all cherish. Together, we’re raising both dollars and good will as part of A World of Good.
As we gather with loved ones this season, we’re grateful for blessings both great and small — and most of all, for you.
Happy Thanksgiving to our Central family and friends. 🦃
