Delmarva Christian Schools scholarship banquet a success

November 24, 2016

Delmarva Christian Schools held their annual Student Scholarship Banquet Oct. 7. The numbers have come in and Development Director Justin Savini says, “This  is one of the best scholarship banquets in Delmarva Christian history, From start to finish, God was honored and the mission and vision of Delmarva Christian Schools were clearly communicated. Our keynote speakers, Jason and David Benham, did an exceptional job of sharing their story and the critical importance of excellent Christian education.”

Through the generosity of many who share the school's vision and have the heart to further the school's excellent Christian educational programs to as many families as possible, Delmarva Christian Schools was able to raise over $200,000 toward student scholarships. "This fundraising effort is the best Delmarva Christian has seen since its foundational years," said Savini.

With the funds raised, the goal of awarding more than $400,000 in student scholarships will be accomplished. This translates in the ability to enroll 143 students whom would otherwise not be able to attend DCS, to offer scholarships to 30 percent of the school's student body, to provide excellent Christian education to the next generation of Christian leaders across Delmarva and to fulfill the mission of proclaiming the gospel by preparing students spiritually, academically, and physically to know and do God's will in their lives.

"The support given is an investment in the next generation of Christian leaders, business people, educators, pastors, missionaries, performing artists and more. We are truly grateful to those who help Delmarva Christian train and send students that will positively impact every sector of society," said Savini.
