Our Chapter has embarked on a program to provide a scholarship to a deserving student for the 2010-2011 academic year. More details on the scholarship program can be found by clicking the link in the menu to the left. If you as a chapter member wish to assist in continuing this program in the future, we invite you to donate any amount of money (small or large) to the chapter scholarship fund. You may make checks out to AMS/NWA-Memphis, note "scholarship fund" on the memo line, and bring it to any meeting or contact Treasurer Mike Wroten to make other arrangements. We appreciate your support of this valuable program!
