Central College student scholarship recognition

   Central College's 23rd annual Scholarship Dinner April 20 honored donors, students and families who were seated together to share a meal, conversation and program. Over 500 attended the event.

   Central College, Pella, boasts more than 235 donors who have established endowed scholarships and 2,180 who contributed to the Journey Scholarship Fund last year. Students from the area receiving scholarships are listed below. 

   Cade Brouwer, Class of 2024, from Cascade received the Pella Rolscreen Scholarship.

   Grace Digmann-Pearson, Class of 2024, from Anamosa received the John & Vera Wesselink Scholarship.

   Central's generous donor base made it possible to offer all new and incoming students a Journey Scholarship for the first time ever last fall. Because of this momentum, more than 99 percent of Central students receive financial aid or scholarship(s), which ensures access to an affordable, quality education at Central. Through the support of donors, the college plans to continue awarding a Journey Scholarship to every future new student attending Central.
