FOUNDATION ACTIVITIES

The Fort Hays Tech | North Central Foundation has been challenged by the Dane G. Hansen Foundation to grow our endowment fund, which in turn will grow our Foundation for the future needs of our students and programs. Donations received in 2023 will be matched by the Hansen Foundation 1:1 (up to $150,000) and the matching dollars will be invested in our Action Fund for the Future! We thank the Hansen Foundation for their generous donation and investment in our students, programs and Foundation! If you are interested in donating to help us meet our goal, please contact Mendi Anschutz, Director of Advancement at 785-738-9090 or manschutz@fhtechnc.edu.

Every autumn we honor donors who have established Scholarships with our Foundation. At our Scholarship Receptions, donors are able to meet the students who receive their scholarships as we honor those students who are awarded these scholarships to help further their education. We host a reception at both our Beloit and Hays Campuses. A personal invitation to donors is delivered in early September.

Giving Options
