Chaney Firm team members accept awards for contributions to community

The Arkadelphia Alliance and Area Chamber of Commerce held its annual award banquet on March 1. Cindy Jackson, a Chaney Firm team member, was recognized with the Volunteer of the Year award for her tireless efforts for the Clark County Charitable Health Service. Cindy helped establish the Health Service, a donation-run nonprofit organization which helps more than 150 uninsured Clark County residents obtain medical attention through local providers. Cindy personally staffs the clinic two days a week. For more information about the Clark County Charitable Health Service, read an article published by our local paper here. Donations to help fund the service can be sent to Southern Financial Partners, 615 Main St., Arkadelphia, AR 71923 with the check marked “Clark County Charitable Health Service.”

Leah Sexton, another Chaney Firm team member, is the president-elect of the local chapter of Junior Auxillary. She was on hand for the awards banquet to help accept the Volunteer Organization of the Year award to Junior Auxillary. As a few examples of JA's contributions to our community, the annual Angel Tree drive raises enough money to provide clothing and toys to over 500 local children each winter. JA also throws a charity ball each spring to raise money for other community projects, including backpacks for schoolchildren. To donate, send checks to Junior Auxiliary of Arkadelphia, to P.O. Box 565, Arkadelphia, AR 71923.

Congratulations to Cindy and Leah! We are proud of you!
