Geneva COVID-19 Project Fund

COVID-19 Project

Geneva has established a project fund to respond to needs brought on by this pandemic. COVID-19 Project funding will be used for relief in specific, well-defined areas such as: 

  • Additional expenses in delivering online instruction;
  • Preservation of core functions of college personnel to the greatest extent practical;
  • Offset of college-funded scholarships to provide budget relief;
  • Revenue losses from lower tuition revenue;
  • Loss of expected room and board.

We ask, if God has blessed you to be able to do so, that you consider a gift to the Geneva COVID-19 Project.

Gold and White Grant

Refer a student: Gold & White Alumni Grant

You may know college-bound students—family and friends—who would be a great fit for Geneva. You also probably know high school age students in your church or neighborhood who would benefit from a Geneva education.

As alumni, when you refer college-bound students to Geneva, you qualify them to receive the gift that only alumni can give, the Gold & White Alumni Grant. A Gold & White gift starts with support for school and ends with the lifetime value we work to provide through the ministry of education at Geneva College. Learn more or make a referral.


Keep In Touch

We would love to hear from you! Whether you have a job change, earned an additional degree, got married, had a child, or have a change of address, please let us know so we can update your record. Submit your announcements or updates.
