Since its inception, Tabor College has equipped thousands of students to live lives of learning, work, and service for Christ and His kingdom. In the Next Century Campaign, we’re building on that rich legacy to secure a thriving future for generations to come.
Tabor has raised $30 million toward Capital Projects, Scholarships & Programs, and Endowment Growth since 2021. We seek to raise a total of $90 million by 2030.

Capital Projects
An $11 million project is underway to expand the former Mary J. Regier Building to become the Business & Entrepreneurship Center. The original building will be completely remodeled and will include a north expansion. The H.W. Lohrenz Administration Building will be enhanced and restored to maintain its history and add key features to cement its place on our campus.
Our students will have the incredible opportunity to use this premier space to foster the calling God has put in their lives. It will have a Kingdom focus, preparing students to start companies, nonprofits, and other ventures to take Christ to the world.
The H.W. Lohrenz Administration Building will be enhanced and restored to maintain its history and add key features to cement its place on Tabor’s campus. Plans include restoring its exterior brick, replacing windows, reglazing the Corinthian columns, adding an elevator, and restoring historic stained-glass windows on the east side of the building.
We opened our newest residence hall, Jost Hall, in 2023. An East Hall renovation is coming soon and we plan to build two new residence halls in the coming years.
GOAL: $40.68 MILLION

The Next Century Campaign Overview
A Defining Impact
“I enjoy my Tabor College education because it has helped shape my Christian worldview and how I see business. I ask my professors thoughtful questions and get biblically grounded answers. I loved serving on the committee for the Business & Entrepreneurship Center because I enjoyed talking to other students about what they wanted to see in the building and then getting to represent them at the meetings and relay what the students wanted to see. I am so excited about the new building.”
Tayton Smith

“Even in my short time at Tabor College, I’ve been amazed at the passion and drive of our students. They are eager to learn, take risks, and integrate their faith into their careers. I’ve already witnessed students step out in faith, whether launching a new idea, leading with integrity in a project, or trusting God with their next steps. The Business & Entrepreneurship Center will only deepen those opportunities and equip students to bring their God-given talents into the business world confidently and purposefully.”
Jeremy Ensey (fs’92)
Central Kansas Entrepreneurship Center Director & Assistant Professor of Business
”This campaign clearly indicates Tabor will continue to be a strong force for future generations. The Lord has been faithful and we will continue to honor him as we move boldly into the future, staying steadfast to our mission as we build on the foundation that has been laid. With prayer and the faithful generosity of the Tabor family, we can ensure the college thrives for decades to come.”
