Panola College was honored to participate in the re-grand opening of the newly remodeled Center Walmart store, where a $1,000 Community Grant was presented to the College by Store Manager Jeff Martin and People Partner LaKeith Cotton. This generous grant will support career exploration and scholarships for students in Shelby County.

Walmart has a strong history of supporting Panola College, previously funding scholarships, Chromebooks for student checkout, backpacks, school supplies, student engagement activities, and children’s summer camps. The continued partnership exemplifies Walmart’s commitment to fostering education and community development in Shelby County.

“We are incredibly grateful for Walmart’s ongoing support,” said Cancee Lester, Director of Shelby County Operations. “This grant will make a significant impact on our students and their future opportunities.”
