Register

You’re Invited!

Join us for an unforgettable evening at the 2026 Martin Luther King Freedom Scholarship Celebration, hosted by The Center at the University of Central Missouri. The event takes place Tuesday, Jan. 20, 2026, in the Sandra Temple Elliott Ballrooms on UCM’s Warrensburg campus.

🎶 The night kicks off at 5:30 p.m. with a social and silent auction.
🍽️ At 7 p.m., enjoy a delicious dinner followed by an inspiring program, complete with student performances, scholarship presentations and a dessert reception to close the night.

This is not just a fundraising dinner; it’s a celebration of diversity, inclusivity and opportunity. Your presence supports the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Freedom Scholarship at UCM, which opens doors for students — many from underrepresented or underserved backgrounds — to dream bigger and reach higher than they ever thought possible.

Together, we can create change, honor Dr. King’s legacy, and celebrate the incredible students at UCM. 🌟

👉 Reserve your spot by Jan. 12, 2026 — you won’t want to miss it!
