We would like to introduce our Keynote Speaker for The Excel Center Spring Graduation, Kenneth "Muskie" Harris! Harris is a former athlete, businessman, politician and community partner. He was the first African American male from Little Rock’s Central High School to attend the University of Arkansas on an athletic scholarship. He was a four-year letterman on the football team. He went on to become the first black male on the University of Arkansas’s Alumni Board of Directors, serving three four-year terms and initiated the U of A Black Alumni Association. He has also served three terms on the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame Board of Directors. We look forward to him giving the commencement address and thank him for supporting and cheering on our graduates. #goodwillar #excel #adulteducation

Goodwill Industries of Arkansas is pleased to announce that we have been awarded a $20,000 grant from the Roy & Christine Sturgis Charitable Trust, Bank of America, N.A., Trustee. This funding will help us enhance our Welding Certification Program offered through The Academy at Goodwill Industries of Arkansas in Little Rock and Springdale. With this funding, Goodwill will provide welding students with their own welder’s kit containing tools and supplies they can take with them after graduation. The funding will also allow Goodwill to purchase supplies and materials to improve the welding labs in both locations. #goodwill #GoodwillAR #givetogood #tradeschool #welding
