Focus Forward Together: Why NBC's Day of Giving Matters

There's something powerful about a community that fixes its eyes on a shared future and moves toward it—together. On Tuesday, April 28, 2026, Nazarene Bible College is inviting our entire NBC family to do exactly that.

A Historic First

April 28 marks NBC's inaugural Day of Giving—a first-ever, 24-hour celebration of generosity and shared mission. It's one day. One unified community. And one extraordinary opportunity for every person who loves NBC to help write the next chapter of this college's story.

Focus Forward Together. That's not just a theme—it's a conviction.

Where Your Gift Goes

Every gift made on April 28 will go directly toward Ministerial Scholarship Support, clearing the financial obstacles that can stand between a called student and their God-given purpose. Whether you give $5 or $500, your generosity becomes part of something much larger than a donation. It becomes part of a student's future—and the future of the communities and churches they'll one day serve.

In Their Own Words

Our students feel the weight of that reality every single day.

"Because of your generosity, I’m now better equipped to prepare for a lifetime of teaching, guiding, and serving others. I consider this investment in my education an investment in every life I’ll have the opportunity to touch."

"Your financial support is not only easing a real burden, but it is also a powerful reminder that the body of Christ walks alongside one another in love and encouragement."

The Ripple Effect

That's the forward-facing pathway your gift travels. From your heart, through NBC's hands, into the life of a future pastor, chaplain, or ministry leader who will serve churches, communities, families, and individuals for decades to come. When we focus forward together, the ripple effect is impossible to fully measure—but it is very, very real.

At NBC, our mission has always been to provide affordable, accessible, Christ-centered ministerial education. The Day of Giving is a direct expression of that mission, and it belongs to all of us—alumni, friends, faculty, staff, and faithful supporters who have walked this road with us.

Will You Join Us?

We have God-sized goals and dreams. We believe this first-ever Day of Giving can set a new standard for what generosity and shared mission look like at NBC—and we're trusting God to do something remarkable when His people focus forward together.

Will you mark April 28 on your calendar and prayerfully consider how you might help NBC at this important moment and in the weeks and months to come?

Your gift is more than a transaction. It's a declaration that the future of ministry matters, that the next generation deserves to answer their calling with manageable financial burdens, and that NBC's mission is worth pressing toward—together.

Focus forward. Give on April 28. Visit nbc.edu to learn more.
