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.

 


 


 

Welcome, Class of 2026! The timeline above gives an overview for what participating students can expect this year. Be sure to follow us on Facebook for the latest updates and announcements, and as always - feel free to Contact Us with questions. Best wishes for a fantastic senior year!
