National Park College (NPC) recently received a $10,000 continuing grant from the
Oaklawn Foundation Student Wellness Fund through the United Way of the Ouachitas.
The grant will help students through wellness initiatives such as housing, clothing
assistance, food insecurities, supplies and more.
Executive director of the NPC Foundation, Nicole Herndon said, “We appreciate the
generosity of both the Oaklawn Foundation and the United Way. Many of today’s students
want to continue their education and yet face many financial obstacles. The purpose
of this fund is to bridge that gap by providing financial assistance to students faced
with everyday challenges. It is another step in the right direction when focusing
on student success.”
