From teaching high school English and Spanish, to working in criminal justice, to serving as a youth pastor, to playing professional football, Ferrum College students were eager to tell the world the vision of their future. By doing so, they helped promote this year’s #GivingTuesday at Ferrum College.

“The success of Giving Day was dependent on the students wanting to get involved and understanding what their gift meant to Ferrum College, and for that we can’t give enough gratitude to them,” said Ferrum Fund Officer Paige Brookshier.

“Our donors are crucial to building a successful future for the College. Your gift to the Ferrum Fund empowers our students to dream big, discover their potential, and make a difference in their communities,” said Ferrum College President David Johns.

The Ferrum Fund provides current and future students with:

  • quality academic programs
  • hands-on learning experiences
  • scholarships
  • internship, undergraduate research, and study abroad opportunities
  • student activities, athletic programs, and service projects
