'On Saturday, in the Kaplan Auditorium of the Henderson County Main Library, there was a fellowship of women. The Philanthropic Education Organization hosted an education fair to introduce women of all ages to the various loans, scholarships and grants the organization offers for women trying to go to school.

“We have the heart and the means to help women achieve their educational goals,” said Pauline Wickens, organizer with the state’s chapter of PEO. “What we don’t always have is visibility or accessibility to those who could benefit from our services.”'
