Our story

Gwendolyn M. Sanders was a beloved mother and wife who had a lasting impact on anyone she touched. She nurtured an atmosphere love, discipline, education, faith, love of God and service to others. She had a 34-year career with AT&T, but always dreamed of becoming a Nurse. While raising her family and working full-time, she embarked on her dream of becoming a nurse by attending North Carolina A&T State University studying for a bachelor’s degree in nursing. She enjoyed attending a Historically Black College and University and was a proud Aggie. While attending NC A&T, she achieved academic honors along with ninety credit hours towards her bachelor’s degree. As life happens, her office closed, and she had to relocate to another city with AT&T. Her plan was to retire, return to Greensboro NC, finish her degree, and enjoy a second career as a nurse. By the time she was able to retire, it would be impossible for her to continue her educational goal because she became a full-time caretaker to her husband until he passed away in 2019.

Our goal

This scholarship seeks to honor the life and memory of Gwendolyn M. Sanders by supporting students who are pursuing a bachelor’s degree in nursing.
