Matching Challenge - briefly explained

Matching Challenge 2026 - We won!

This year, we once again held our Matching Challenge: the goal? To raise 鈧�160,000 for additional scholarships!

Sounds ambitious? It was!

Thanks to the tremendous commitment of our scholarship recipients, alumni, and friends, we raised over 鈧�10,000 in donations. That was the hurdle we had to clear in order to receive the additional 鈧�70,000 in pledges we had already secured. This brought our total to over 鈧�80,000, which will be doubled again by the federal government! In this way, we have jointly managed to raise over 鈧�160,000 for additional scholarships. This will enable us to help an additional 44 students receive scholarships.

Sounds easy? It was 鈥� thanks to the participation and commitment of many wonderful donors. Many thanks to everyone!
