CAMBRIDGE-ISANTI DOLLARS FOR SCHOLARS GIVE-A-THON Happening Now Through April 1!
Cambridge-Isanti, Minnesota (February 2026) - Since 1990, Cambridge-Isanti Dollars for Scholars has worked toward its commitment to provide financial support for post-secondary education and training to Cambridge-Isanti High School graduates. This commitment remains the same today. What has changed is the way we ask for donations. For over 30 years, we hosted a two-day Phonathon event. With so many landlines being disconnected and replaced with cell phones, a challenge was created in keeping our Phonathon database up-to-date.
As a board, we came together in 2023 to look for new ways to reach our donors, which is how GIVE-A-THON was formed. With this new approach, and thanks to overwhelming community support, we were able to award a record-breaking $253,850 to the Class of 2025 - the highest amount awarded in a single academic year, ever! This year, we are hoping to surpass this milestone once again, but we need your help.
2026 GIVE-A-THON donations can be made by mail, text, or online.
