For the past century, the Temple University College of Education has demonstrated a strong commitment to preparing students as educational leaders and agents of change who employ leading-edge understandings and evidence-based practices in any setting in which they work.

As we embark on our next century of excellence, we remain steadfastly committed to ensuring our students have opportunities to succeed at Temple. To demonstrate our commitment, we have launched the Centennial Scholarship Challenge, an initiative where your donation to the College of Education Scholarship Fund will be matched dollar for dollar, and we invite you to participate with your gift today.

Temple students are driven to succeed, with a special determination to realize their full potential. But success is harder when financial obstacles stand in the way. Donor-funded scholarships are critical to keeping a Temple education affordable and accessible. With fewer financial pressures, students have a clearer path to success in college, enabling them to carry full course loads and have more time to devote to their studies. Take Stacy DiCandilo, a student in her senior year who might not have graduated this month had it not been for the financial support she received.

“The College of Education Scholarships mean the absolute world to me. By having these scholarships, I have the opportunity to achieve my dreams without having to worry about loans and student debt. I am forever thankful for the College of Education believing in me, and I am so excited to see where life takes me thanks to the scholarships I received.”

Your gift to the College of Education Scholarship Fund is vital to ensuring any person with talent, grit and tenacity has the opportunity to pursue a Temple degree.

The next 100 years of student success on campus and increased outcomes for learners everywhere begins now. I ask that you join me in this investment for the future. By donating to scholarships during the Centennial Scholarship Challenge, you will double the impact of your gift, creating even more pathways for students who yearn for a Temple education. Many things on campus have changed, but one thing will always remain constant: Temple’s commitment to helping each and every student fulfill their potential.

Sincerely,

Gregory M. Anderson
