Each year a portion of our financial aid for students is secured through individual donations received over the phone. We gather as a community for six evenings in February to make phone calls to our past donors.The 2008 goal is $90,000, or over 30% of our total financial aid budget.

Here's how you can help:

  • If you have participated in a previous Phonathon, please consider matching or increasing your contribution.
    If this is your first donation to Phonathon or Biblical, please consider a gift of at least $100.
    Help us make phone calls--choose an evening & time that suits your schedule. Contact Hannah at hwildasin@biblical.edu for more information. Dinner, prizes, giveaways, and much more are available!
  • Consider making an on-line gift before the start of Phonathon. We will then take you off our list of calls.

Phonathon gifts make it possible for us to maintain educational excellence and remain affordable for students.

All gifts are important to Biblical's goal of preparing missional leaders who incarnate the story of Jesus with humility and authenticity and who communicate the story with fidelity to Scripture, appreciation of the Christian tradition, and sensitivity to the needs and aspirations of postmodern culture.
