TC Receives $3,272 Gift from Texarkana Noon Lions Club

The Texarkana Noon Lions Club presented a $3,272 check to the Texarkana College Foundation today at a check presentation ceremony held at 10 AM in the lobby of the Texarkana College Nelson Administration Building. The gift represents proceeds from a recent gun raffle by the Lions Club and will be used for student scholarships.

Lions Club representative, Selden McMillin, said, “It is important for us to support our community and we are proud to give these scholarships.”

Katie Andrus, director of the TC Foundation, said the gift will have a big impact on students.

“We are so appreciative of the Lion’s Club generous donation and their commitment to higher education,” said Andrus. “The Lions have made education a priority when it comes to supporting our community through their fundraising efforts. Their support provides greater opportunities for our students.”

The TC Foundation’s mission is to enhance the overall reputation of Texarkana College, to provide external resources to fund College priorities, and to create opportunities for the college to build partnerships with alumni, friends, donors, corporations and foundations. The Foundation’s goal is to provide TC students with affordable and accessible opportunities in higher education.
