Wal-Mart’s Grand Opening celebration yielded checks for students and schools on Wednesday morning.

The 2008 Walton Family Foundation Scholarship in the amount of $10,000 went to high school student, Amber Hopkins. High school student, Jack Thompson received a Walton Family Foundation Scholarship as well. Other School and youth programs receiving checks during the grand opening were:

Cushing High School ( Project Graduation) – $1,000

Riding Path Academy – $1,000

Oak Grove Elementary School – $1,000

Drumright High School – $1,000

Big Brothers and Big Sisters – $1,000

One of Wal-Mart’s ways of giving back to the community is to support our youth.

Thank you Wal-Mart, for investing in our communities futures.
