Three groups joined for the Back to School happy hour networking event at Mediums Art Lounge in downtown Little Rock. The Young Black Professionals of Arkansas, Little Rock’s Young Nonprofit Professionals Network and Just Communities of Arkansas’ Change Agents were on hand to welcome students from UALR, the Clinton School of Public Service, UAMS and Bowen School of Law. The event was a student version of the regular Stay Cool Thursdays happy hour event.

Four donations were recently made to Children’s Hospital Foundation in support of the Believe Campaign for a new Children’s Hospital.

The first phase of the campaign is to build a new outpatient center designed to engage children and meet the complex needs of families and physicians. Outpatient services at Children’s Hospital at Erlanger provide medical services to more than 100,000 children a year.
