First National Bank of Commerce Presents Gift to WBU

(WALNUT RIDGE, Ark.) – First National Bank of Commerce has presented a gift to the Williams Works initiative at Williams Baptist University. Kim Long, Vice President of BSA/AML at First National, presented a $7,500 check to WBU President Dr. Stan Norman.

“First National Bank of Commerce is one of WBU’s most faithful friends and supporters,” said Norman. “Students in Williams Works are earning their way to a great education and preparing to be wonderful additions to the workforce, and donors like First National are making it possible.”

Students in the Williams Works program work 16 hours per week during the fall and spring semesters. In return, their tuition and student service fees are fully covered for each semester they participate. Moreover, students have the opportunity to work full-time during the summer, with their room and board expenses also covered, providing students a pathway to graduate with little or no student debt.

Williams is a private, Christian university located in Walnut Ridge.
