The Dr. Charles L. Hollis Founders Scholarship Fund was established to honor the legacy of Dr. Charles L. Hollis, the beloved founding pastor of Temple Christian Academy and a spiritual father to generations in the Quad Cities. Known for his unwavering faith, visionary leadership, and deep compassion for people, Dr. Hollis dedicated his life to building a Christ-centered community where families could grow strong in their faith and future.

In keeping with his lifelong commitment to education and the next generation, this scholarship provides practical support to single mothers who have enrolled their children at Quad Cities Christian School (QCCS). Recognizing the unique challenges these mothers face, the fund is designed to give “an extra hand” so their children can experience the blessing of a Christ-centered education.

Through this scholarship, the spirit of Dr. Hollis’ ministry lives on, strengthening families, supporting education, and ensuring that every child has the opportunity to flourish academically and spiritually. Each award is a reminder of his enduring legacy: faith in Christ, love for people, and a vision for equipping the next generation to impact the world for the Kingdom of God.

If you would like to support the Dr. Charles L. Hollis Founders Scholarship Fund, your generosity will directly impact single mothers and their children at Quad Cities Christian School. Please make checks payable to River City Church, earmarking them for the Founders Scholarship. Every gift helps carry forward Dr. Hollis’ legacy by opening doors for children to receive a Christ-centered education.
