With a gift of a reproduction 1929 Mercedes Gazelle and other
significant contributions, Curtis and Priscilla Grant of Monkey Run, AR,
have established support for non-traditional student scholarships to
Arkansas State University-Mountain Home (ASUMH) in memory of Carl
Velner.  These gifts were made to Arkansas State University-Mountain
Home’s Foundation. 
The vehicle will be used to generate revenue to support student
scholarships. Additionally, the Grants have made other non-cash gifts 31
appraised in excess of $50,000.  These gifts will also be converted to cash
to establish the Carl Velner Non-Traditional Student Scholarship.  
Priscilla and Curtis Grant are residents of the Twin Lakes Area and
Mr. Grant is a veteran of the U.S. Navy. Mr. Velner was also a Navy
veteran, both having served with submarine duty.
Dr. Robin Myers, Chancellor of ASUMH, said, “We are very apprecia-
tive of the Grant’s generosity and compassion demonstrated through
these gifts that will support so many of our students in the future.”
