Governor Terry Branstad was in Pella Thursday to recognize Central College for their volunteering efforts.

In June, Central was named among the best employee-based volunteering employers in the state of Iowa when they won the Give Back Iowa Challenge.

Community Based Learning Director Cheri Doane says the award shows the college’s continuing commitment to service from students, staff, and administration.

“Central College, for many years and decades, has been investing in our local, state, and international communities,” Doane says. “This award is a great way to celebrate that.”

The presentation was held during the school’s annual convocation ceremony.
