14th Annual Scholarship Donor Appreciation Dinner
Honoring Our Donors On October 12, 2010, the College of Nursing hosted its 14th Annual Scholarship Donor Appreciation Dinner at the Country Club of Little Rock. The College awarded 61 scholarships to 126 students for the 2010-11 academic year. The keynote speaker was Art Horne, executive director of development for the colleges at UAMS. Horne provided insight on philanthropy and highlighted the College of Nursing’s fundraising accomplishments. Ashley Hunter, a BSN student, and Pamela Gouner, a PhD student, shared the significance of being recipients of their scholarships and why they chose the nursing profession. “This evening is so important to all of us,” said Cynthia Gregory, director of development. “We have the opportunity to thank our supporters for their generosity, and the students are filled with appreciation for their scholarships.”
