Trace Smith presented the final installment to endow the William T. and Sue Smith Scholarship Fund today in a ceremony at Texarkana College’s Nelson Administration Building. The Smith family, who own Super Bingo, has donated $25,000 over the past 10 years to fully endow the fund.

The William T. and Sue Smith Scholarship Fund is reserved for non-traditional female students at Texarkana College.

“We want to reward students who are coming back to school to create a better life for their families.” Smith said. “In our business, we see many people who want to start over by getting a college education, but they just need a little push in the right direction. We hope this scholarship fund will be that push.”

TC Foundation Director Katie Andrus said the Foundation is thankful for the family’s support.

“We are so grateful to the Smith Family for recognizing the impact an education can have and making an investment in our students,” Andrus said.
