100% of Central College Students. Every Single Year.

At Central, community isnt just something we talk about, its how we care for one another.

Thanks to the incredible foundation of generosity built by our alumni, parents and friends, Central is proud to promise that every single student receives a scholarship for every year they attend. From noon Tuesday, Sept. 1, to noon Thursday, Sept. 3, every gift you give to the Journey Scholarship Fund will be matched dollar-for-dollar, doubling your impact for our students.


What better way to welcome Central students to campus each year than supporting them on the way to their biggest dreams?

True impact isn’t about the size of a single gift; it’s about our entire community standing together. Whether you choose to give $25, $100 or $1,000, your participation sends a powerful message to every student across campus: We see you, we believe in you and we are standing behind you.

We are profoundly grateful to the generous members of our Dutch family who stepped forward to provide this years challenger gifts, inspiring others to give back. 

Thank you to our generous challengers for their incredible support!

Robert ’69 and Charlotte Poppen Foreman ’69; Aaron ’97 and Lisa Vander Wilt Shileny ’98; Erica Swanson ’99 and Brian Smith ’99; Lance and Judi A. Clauson Vogel '82 and other anonymous donors.


Thank You and Go Dutch!
