ODESSA, TX – Odessa College is proud to announce the successful conclusion of its 2025 Student Success Scholarship Campaign, which officially wrapped on April 17th after nearly a month of fundraising momentum and campus-wide enthusiasm.

The campaign launched on March 20th with an ambitious goal: 100% employee participation and $90,000 in donations to support student scholarships. OC employees rallied behind the cause with overwhelming generosity and a deep belief in the college’s mission — achieving 100% participation and surpassing the fundraising goal, bringing in a record-breaking $127,471.50.

“This campaign is more than a number — it’s a testament to the heart and commitment of our OC family,” said Allisa Cornelius, Vice President for Advancement. “When we say ‘Our mission is their future’, this is what we mean. Every dollar raised helps break down financial barriers for our students and paves the way for their success.”

Donations came from a united front of Odessa College employees, the Board of Trustees, and the Odessa College Foundation Board of Directors, showcasing a powerful community commitment to student opportunity and educational access.

Odessa College extends its heartfelt gratitude to all who contributed to this effort, reinforcing the college’s longstanding dedication to student achievement and community support. For more information about scholarships or to contribute, please visit www.odessa.edu.
