Finals Week Care Packages
A Finals Week Care Package is an opportunity to show support for a student or suite members with all proceeds supporting the Nancy Denman Student Life Scholarship.
For a $25 purchase, care packages are assembled in a reusable Cottey tote bag loaded with snacks! Two pieces of fruit, mints, breakfast bars, a full-size candy bar, crackers, gum, chips, and a variety of other goodies to keep a student fueled for studying!
Dr. Nancy Denman was an alumna, a P.E.O., and the coordinator of counseling at Cottey from August 1998 until her passing in January 2005 from breast cancer.
This endowed scholarship awards two returning students a scholarship each fall.
