Celebrating 80 Years of BHC
Honoring Our Past. Creating Brave Futures.
A college’s legacy is measured in the lives changed along the way. For 80 years, Black Hawk College has been part of thousands of stories — first steps, second chances, new careers, and dreams realized. This anniversary is an opportunity to celebrate those stories while helping write the ones still to come.
For 80 years, Black Hawk College has opened doors, created opportunity, and helped students build brighter futures. As we celebrate this milestone, we are looking ahead with the same spirit of possibility that has shaped our college for generations of learners.
Give today. Give for the future. Give for generations to come.
The BHC Forever Endowed Scholarship was established during Black Hawk College’s 75th anniversary as a lasting commitment to student success. Now, as we celebrate 80 years, we invite our alumni, friends, employees, and community supporters to help grow this legacy.
When you give to the BHC Forever Endowed Scholarship, you help provide lasting support for Black Hawk College students. We will continue growing this vital fund on anniversaries and other important occasions, building a tradition of giving that will help students for years to come.
Your gift, regardless of size, honors the students, faculty, staff, and supporters who built our past and help create strong futures for the students who will shape what comes next.
