My Parents
Scholarship Recipients
The A-Willie-Nita scholarship is an honor of my parents, Anita Meadows-Williams and Willie Cooper. My parents provided me with many educational and life opportunities. They instilled a certain level of resiliency and dedication that helped me through college and every step in my career. Together, they created a love for higher education in me and the need to provide others with an opportunity to better their circumstances. This scholarship is a four year scholarship that is awarded to full time students at universities and colleges
