The University of Arkansas Community College at Morrilton (UACCM) Foundation raised a total of $20,000 during the UACCM Car Show and Auction event. All donations and auction proceeds will go to the UACCM Automotive Technology Program. “The funds raised from the car show and auction will directly benefit UACCM students,” said UACCM Development Officer Lauren Bryan. “The Automotive Technology program at UACCM is already a top-tier training facility for students. These funds will ensure that it continues to provide the most relevant and up-to-date training available,” Bryan said. The auction featured a 1957 Triumph TR-3, donated by former UA System President Dr. Donald Bobbitt and his wife Susan and maintained by the UACCM Automotive Technology Program.

       The University of Arkansas Community College at Morrilton (UACCM) Foundation raised a total of $4,513 during UACCM Day of Giving on Tuesday. The UACCM Foundation works to remove barriers students may face through a variety of on-campus aid and support. “First and foremost, thank you so much to everyone who generously gave during this event,” said UACCM Development Officer Lauren Bryan. “The funds raised during UACCM Day of Giving not only met the goals we had set, but drastically exceeded them in several cases,” Bryan said. During UACCM Day of Giving, nine specific categories were designated as areas of need, including the Timberwolf Pantry – on-campus stations throughout the campus that provide students with free food and toiletries, and the Student Emergency Fund – a fund that exists to help UACCM students meet unexpected financial needs that may interrupt their education. UACCM student Jamie Palm has experienced the relief provided by these...

    Jamie Palm has combined her determination and perseverance with the on-campus aid that UACCM provides to pave the way to a better future. "I notice the Timberwolf pantries everywhere I go. Students don't have to wait, they can grab what they need if they need it," said Jamie.  She continued, "There's been many times that I have gone and grabbed a snack to get through the day. It comes in clutch when my funds are low or I am running in between classes each day."  Another on-campus aid that UACCM offers is the Student Emergency Fund. The Student Emergency Fund exists to help any UACCM student meet a temporary or unexpected financial need to stay in school. "I learned about the Student Emergency Fund right before the big ice storm last month," Jamie said. She continued, "I needed a way to pay for a CPR class. The Student Emergency Fund only took a few minutes to fill out and it made a big difference." Jamie also has experienc...

  On March 10, Timberwolves everywhere will unite for one day of giving – a day long giving event that will support UACCM students and programs.  Today, we highlight UACCM student Shelbi Wallace, who learned that being a Timberwolf means that you are never on your own.  "I was so intimidated by having to do college alone. If I had realized all the resources and support available to students at UACCM, I would have started here sooner," said Shelbi. Shelbi notes the benefit of joining student organizations for her future, but notes how the cost to join can deter students from participating.  "I'm joining Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society because I know that group can open doors for me in the future. People may not realize how big of an impact their donation can make."  Like those before her, Shelbi has also benefited from the Student Emergency Fund.  "I have had to borrow money from the Student Emergency Fund for gas to get to school. I'm thankful the Stude...

  On March 10, Timberwolves everywhere will unite for one day of giving – a day long giving event that will support UACCM students and programs.  Today, we highlight UACCM student Jordan Buggs, who has personally benefited from the aid provided by programs at UACCM. “I’ve used both the Student Emergency Fund and the Timberwolf Pantry and they have helped out so much,” said Jordan. The Timberwolf Pantry is a free option for students that is regularly stocked through donation with food and basic hygiene items. There are Timberwolf Pantries located in five buildings on campus. “I am on campus for a long time, and being able to get out of class and stop by the Timberwolf Pantry for a snack really helps,” Jordan said.   “If you have a little extra to spend, it doesn’t hurt to support others,” Jordan said. He continued, “These projects do matter and they help students that go to UACCM.” “It may seem small, but it really does make a difference and it has helped me out during my ...
