Harps makes major donation

Posted Wednesday, May 7, 2008, at 11:25 PM

Rector is fortunate, as a community of 2,000 people, to have a supermarket of the quality of Harps. Just imagine the town without it.

That perception is strengthened when the company periodically makes a major contribution to the local community.

Such was the the case this week when Harps local manager Shayne Roofe presented a check for $5,000 to the Helping Hands Foundation, an organization which provides assistance in a variety of ways to students in the local school district.

The entire community, and especially our young people, will benefit greatly from this timely contribution.

Kemp has spent his entire career in the newspaper business and served as president of the Arkansas Press Association in 1993. The Kemps' daughter, Ashley Wimberley, has continued the family tradition, currently serving as director of marketing at the APA office in Little Rock.
