Cedarville Magazine 251 N. Main St., Cedarville, OH 45314 1-888-CEDARVILLE | magazine@cedarville.edu cedarville.edu/magazine How can one donor or one gift make a difference? With a God-sized goal of $175 million, One Thousand Days Transformed stands as a powerful testimony that Gospelcentered education makes a lifetime impact on our students. United by mission, more than 26,000 individuals gave 85,915 sacrificial gifts, providing $205,866,509 to surpass every expectation. Today, we celebrate God’s faithfulness and the generosity of His people in the successful completion of this historic campaign. But what role in this incredible story does one gift — one giver — have? Students are learning in new campus facilities like the Scharnberg Business and Communication Center, the Bolthouse Academic Center, and the Civil Engineering Center. They're living in the new Wood and Diehl Johnson/ Phipps/Murdoch residence halls. And the Chickfil-A and expanded Callan Athletic Center are serving a growing, vibrant campus community. Each building started with God working in the heart of one donor, then another, until the goal was met. FAITHFULNESS ON DISPLAY: THE POWER OF ONE Students can choose from new academic programs like civil engineering, cybersecurity, and PA (physician assistant) studies. One hundred new scholarships and an additional $16.5 million to the endowment will provide sustainable support for our students and faculty for years to come. Many times, one gift from one donor was all it took for a student to stay at Cedarville and thrive, opening the doors for ministry and mission. Every gift and every giver mattered! Building on the success of the One Thousand Days Transformed campaign, Cedarville will continue to make Christian education affordable for the next generation of students, enhance our world-class educational experience, and strive for intentional discipleship that helps students live out their faith boldly long after their 1000 Days. To every one who gave, prayed, and shared in the vision — thank you! Together, we have seen more than a campaign fulfilled; we have seen transformation multiplied. Will Smallwood serves as Vice President for Advancement. He earned his PhD in biblical spirituality and American religious history from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. 48 IN CLOSING
