Debbie Thompson, Polk County Extension Homemakers’ Council President presents a $2,000.00 check to Single Parent Scholarship Fund Chair Pete Chambers. Extension Homemakers raised the funds during their annual Ouachita Quilt Show earlier this year. In thanking the Extension Homemakers, Chambers noted that the quilt show involved a tremendous amount of work. He said, “The fact that EHC members care enough to work so hard to help single parents get the education they need makes a huge difference for scholarship recipients. And, it’s important to Scholarship Fund board members to know that we have that kind of community support.”
