Club celebrates over $115,000 in gifts to WC Foundation
With their most recent donation, contributions from the Parker County Women's and Newcomers' Club to the Weatherford College Foundation have crossed the $115,000 mark. Established in 1975, PCWNC began its WC scholarship program in 1998. The scholarship is earmarked for female students of non-traditional age from Parker, Palo Pinto, Jack, Hook or Wise counties.
The club funds its scholarship primarily through membership dues, donations and fundraisers.
"Not only does the club provide scholarships, they also serve as mentors to their students," said Brent Baker, WC vice president of institutional advancement. "They invite the students to their monthly meetings and send them care packages during finals week and other times during the year. It's a very special relationship."
