Journey Scholarship

Want to directly help Central students?

100% of your gift to the Journey Scholarship Fund is used to provide scholarships to our amazing students!

This year we awarded more than $1.7 million in donor-funded Journey Scholarships thanks to the incredible generosity of our donors.

With the support of Central alumni, family and friends, Central has offered a donor-funded scholarship to every newly admitted student since the fall of 2022. 

More Scholarships, More Opportunities

Donor-funded scholarships are an essential part of making a Central education even more affordable and accessible. Central awards dozens of additional donor-funded scholarships each year to help our students succeed. You can give a direct boost to any of them by using the "Other" option while making your gift.

Help Spread the Central Spirit!

The 48-Hour Challenge is all about bringing the Central community together. Help us celebrate by reaching out to your Central friends and mentors. Share Central-themed photos of your kids, pets or Central memories on social media. Share this link – hoorah.central.edu/48hourchallenge – and encourage your family and friends to join the celebration. Thank you and Go Dutch!
