Updates for WTNPA
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
We had a great meeting this month sponsored by Axesome pharmaceuticals. Several WTNPA things were discussed and voted on, they included:
1. Continue scholarship to Union University for FNP students. In the summer we donated $500, and as discussed and voted on we donatrd $1000.00 for scholarships to union also. This is meant to use our funds wisely in assisting with educational needs of nurses' higher education.
2. We voted to give $500 to the Star Center that works with disabled children and young adults.
3. $250 given to New Life Union Mission in Dyersburg that helps children with needs.
4. $250 given to an unnamed teacher who provides from her own funds and donations, to send food backpacks home on the weekends for disadvantage children.
Also we had a quarterly drawing among members present for $200.00.
We plan on continual funding for future FNP's at Union University on a semester basis. Union Univ decides how to share the scholarship money.
