The University of Arkansas Hope-Texarkana Foundation recently received a donation of $1,250 from Express Employment Professionals of Texarkana as a result of their Refresh Leadership Live Simulcast Conference held on the Hope campus, according to a UAHT spokesman.

Express Employment Professionals gave back a portion of the conference registration fees to the Foundation as a way to give back to the community, said Casey Curtis, UAHT communications coordinator.

The theme of the eighth annual Refresh Leadership Live Simulcast Conference was "Great leaders build great teams." Topics ranged from being a team player to the importance of human synergy.

"We are grateful for the partnership with Express Employment Professionals and appreciate their generosity toward the Foundation to help provide assistance to current and future students," said Jill Bobo, UAHT Foundation executive director.
