WEEKEND SCRAPBOOKING TO BENEFIT CADC SALINE COUNTY SINGLE PARENT SCHOLARSHIP FUND Benton, Ark. - Central Arkansas Development Council will have a weekend of scrapbooking to raise money that will benefit Saline County SPSF. It will be held on January 8, 9, and 10th at 920 Edison Ave, Ste 5 from 10am to midnight each day. The cost is $20 per person for the entire event. People may come and go as they please. The scholarships are awarded to single parents pursuing a career-oriented course of study to ensure a better standard of living for his or her family. The Single Parent Scholarship can be used to offset emergencies such as child care, car repair, fuel, books, and tuition not covered by other sources. The scholarship is a means for our community to assist single parents in returning to school to improve their marketable skills and make their goals attainable. The idea behind the Scholarship Fund is that education is the best way for families to reach self-sufficiency. CADC is a private nonprofit community action agency that was formed in 1965 to fight and win the "War on Poverty." The mission of CADC is to improve the quality of life and build strong communities in Arkansas. For more information, please contact Quinn Lausten at 501-315-0885.
