This funding was donated to support scholarships for students enrolled in Nursing and Health Science programs, including those pursuing pre-med degrees.
Auxiliary President Carol Collom Stoner, who has volunteered for over 13 years, expressed pride in the donation, stating, “We are proud to be able to donate this endowment to Texarkana College for student scholarships. Our region always faces a nursing shortage, and these scholarships will assist students who will serve local communities in the future.”
Longtime volunteer Judy Sander noted that the Auxiliary’s donation to the nursing program will “continue to help build a strong medical community for our region.”
Since its establishment in 2018, the Auxiliary has funded nursing scholarships for Texarkana College students.
Following the recent closure of Wadley Regional Medical Center, the Auxiliary will dissolve as a nonprofit organization, with this donation marking its final distribution of funds.
Many members plan to continue their community service as volunteers at Christus Health’s Pine Street location, aiding with the gift shop and information desk.
Katie Andrus, Director of the Texarkana College Foundation, expressed gratitude for the gift. “We are deeply thankful to the Wadley Regional Medical Center Auxiliary for their generous support of our nursing and pre-med students. Their commitment over the years has made a lasting impact on our students and the future of healthcare in our region.”
Ending her statement with an impactful “This endowment will continue their legacy of service and compassion for generations to come.”
