As we approach the end of the 2020 fiscal year, we reflect on all that we have accomplished. From the renewal of our accreditation from the Higher Learning Commission to partnership agreements with graduate programs throughout the region, we have reinvigorated our campus with new opportunities for prospective students to connect with Bethany and achieve the high-quality education Bethany provides, as well give them a pathway to the future of their choosing.

As members of our board of trustees, your unique role makes each of you a perfect role model to embody the spirit of “Bethany Connect.” When you make a financial gift, you are setting a strong example for others to follow. We thank you for your continued support.

To mail a gift, please make a check out to “Bethany College” and write “Board of Trustees Gift” on the memo line. You can also give by texting BCBOT to 41444.
