The UA Cossatot Foundation recently received a $500 gift from Mrs. Jana Bradford of Glenwood, Arkansas, to the Foundation’s 50 & Forward Campaign.

Bradford was recently a guest speaker to juniors and seniors attending UA Cossatot’s Medical Professions class, part of the college’s High School Programs. Bradford spoke on medical-legal ethics and her role as a prosecuting attorney.

“It was an honor speaking to high school students and learning more about them and their aspirations, especially pertaining to higher education. I wanted to give to the Foundation’s 50 & Forward Campaign to help future generations and provide much-needed scholarship funds.”

The UA Cossatot Foundation’s 50 & Forward Campaign is created to offer scholarship funds for UA Cossatot students through a matching grant awarded to UA Cossatot. All donations raised through this Campaign are matched 100 percent up to $150,000. The goal is to raise $150,000 by 2025 to launch a new scholarship endowment of $300,000 in honor of the UA Cossatot’s upcoming 50th anniversary.

UA Cossatot’s Director of Development Dustin Roberts said, “We are so grateful for the generous donation received by Mrs. Bradford. The 50 & Forward Campaign is an excellent opportunity for donors, alumni, and friends of the college to make a gift of any amount, especially since your gift will be matched!”
