Mission

OUR MISSON

The Oscar Washington Educational Fund seeks to ignite the power of purpose, knit generous hearts with education and provide scholarships to propel the next generation further, for the good of all.

Who We Are

Oscar Washington, Jr. was a loving husband to his wife, Doris, a dedicated father of his two daughters, Stephanie and Sydnie, and a committed and highly regarded employee of Entergy Arkansas. He had recently been promoted to Vice President of Customer Service, when he unexpectedly passed away.  In addition to his love for Christ, his family and career, Oscar placed high value on education.  He was passionate about helping young people find success in life, and the OWJEF Scholarships will honor his memory in a way that will benefit generations into the future.

“Our family would like to thank you all for your support of this wonderful program which carries forward the tradition of excellence and service of our beloved Oscar David Washington, Jr.”

– Mrs. Doris Washington
