100 years of excellence!

2024 marks the 100^th anniversary of Benerd College. Its incredible legacy of shaping minds and fostering academic excellence would not be possible without alumni, faculty, staff, advocates, partners, and friends like you. This centennial celebration is a testament to a century of dedicated educators, innovative programs, and a vibrant community that has consistently pushed the boundaries of knowledge and discovery.  

Help us honor and celebrate this historic occasion by making a gift. Your generous support – no matter the amount – ensures that future generations of educators, leaders, and changemakers have the necessary resources to follow in your footsteps and make an impact in their communities and beyond.
