FORT DODGE, Iowa (AP) - A family foundation is giving $3 million to help build a student service center on the Fort Dodge campus of Iowa Central Community College.

The Messenger reports (https://bit.ly/2sESizr ) that the Greehey Family Foundation’s gift will cover a third of the center’s $9 million cost. Bill Greehey, who was chief executive officer of Valero Energy Corp. for more than 25 years, told the newspaper that “it’s nice to be able to do something in Fort Dodge, where I grew up.” He graduated from Fort Dodge Senior High in 1954.

The Greehey foundation donated $1 million in 2015 for scholarships to Iowa Central.
