BHSU to announce progress in $32 million Capital Campaign during public event Dec. 17

Black Hills State University invites the public to the “Because of You Anything is Possible” Capital Campaign Celebration Tuesday, Dec. 17 at 3 p.m. at the Joy Center. The Dec. 17 date marks the conclusion of the successful five-year effort to increase student scholarships.

“This Capital Campaign will impact BHSU for years to come. Beneficiaries will be current and future students who receive scholarships to help them attend BHSU, graduating in four years with less debt,” said Laurie Nichols, Interim President of BHSU. “I and many others are forever indebted to our donors for opening wide the doors to a lifetime of opportunity for students.”

The Capital Campaign started in in 2014 with a goal of $23 million to raise scholarship dollars for students and upgrade BHSU facilities. During the celebration, BHSU will share the results of the campaign including total funds raised, total donors, and several large-impact donations.
