THANK YOU!

Through the support of many loyal Bethany alumni and friends, Give to Bethany Day 2022 was a tremendous success. When the clock struck midnight on November 10 after a full day of interaction across the Bethany Advancement office, friends and alumni of Bethany made

555 gifts totaling $123,324!

After that date, the mail continued to flow in, and our staff heard from Bethany supporters and Challenge Grant originators who wanted to fully maximize the collective momentum of this event. When all the phone calls were answered, and letters, emails, and texts were opened, God blessed our efforts with a final GTBD tally of 597 gifts and $135,169. Adding in the $70,000 from Challenge Grants, our Bethany Fund grew by

$205,169!

As this fund annually represents five percent of our College budget, a huge thank you for all those who chose to make a donation enhancing both the experience for this year’s students and our ongoing mission to bring the “One Thing Needful” to each of them.
