Arkansas Single Parent Scholarship Fund (ASPSF) raised $61,000 during its second annual Day of Giving on March 20, showing strong statewide support for single parents working toward a college degree.
This fundraising effort came as ASPSF awarded $659,600 in Spring 2026 scholarships to 453 single parents, helping student parents across 69 counties stay enrolled in college or trade school while supporting their families.
In Bowie County, Texas, ASPSF awarded $24,400 to 13 spring students, including Shomari Nailon. She is studying health science at Texarkana College, and her longterm goal is to become a pharmacist.
