Carol Ann Douglas--Gratitude Endowment

Carol Ann Douglas was  extraordinary. During her final days she had many little talks with friends.

It was one of those little talks among friends that inspired Carol Ann. Carol Ann learned about Central Piedmont Community College through visits with Wilton Connor, a friend and CPCC Foundation Board member. She was inspired to spend her final days  by giving gifts of gratitude.

Those little talks helped her formulate a plan to establish a gift in gratitude at CPCC. Carol Ann established The Thomas J. Sills Veterans Scholarship Endowment, in honor of her son Thomas who served three tours of duty in Iraq during his military service.

Carol Ann didn't stop there. She encouraged others to join her quest to give out of gratitude. Pretty remarkable woman...Interested in your own gratitude legacy?
