State Representative Davy Carter
Beginning in 1986, Open Arms Shelter began providing emergency
safe housing for Arkansas’ children who have been abused and/or neglected.
These children range in age from birth up to 18 years of age. Open Arms
is one of the few emergency shelters in the state that will accept children
under the age of eight, teenage mothers with their children and large sibling
groups. Through the years, thousands of children have come from all areas of
the state, but the majority of the children are from central Arkansas.
In addition to a room, the children receive three home-cooked meals
a day, snacks and around the clock supervision by our highly experienced
staff. The children attend public school, receive individualized behavior
instruction and management plus receive instruction on basic life skills.
Recognizing the need to mentor teens for a longer period of time and
teach them independent living skills and equipping them with the tools
they need to succeed in adult life, a new wing was added in 2011. Today,
Open Arms Shelter has the ability to serve 24 children at a time whether by
emergency or long-term care, depending on the needs of children under the
care DHS.
Children come to our facility from every imaginable type of crisis. It is
not unusual for a child to hide food because they have grown accustomed to
not knowing when or where their next meal will come. Many times a child
will arrive in tears because of their tragic situation and then leave in tears
because Open Arms Shelter was truly the only caring environment they
have ever experienced. The stay with Open Arms may provide the basis for
hope that will stay with them and positively influence them for a lifetime.
Open Arms Shelter serves not only as a steppingstone for children
in Arkansas awaiting placement in foster homes, treatment facilities or
with relatives, but also long-term care and as a critical source of education,
rehabilitation, love, attention and discipline.
Although the new addition affords Open Arms Shelter the privilege
of serving more children, the cost of building the new wing has placed the
Shelter in debt. Thank you for supporting Open Arms Shelter by attending this
important fundraiser. If you would like to do more for the children of Open
Arms Shelter, please contact Nancy Hamlin, Executive Director (501) 676-6166
or e-mail oashamlin@sbcglobal.net.
While serving children 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, our needs
are never ending. If you believe in the mission of Open Arms Shelter, please
consider donating monthly with needed items such as food or paper products
or contribute financially to this private, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization. Open
Arms Shelter is licensed by the State of Arkansas. Your tax-deductible donation
will help insure that children in need have hope for a better tomorrow.

Celebrity Scary-Oke Act 1
Tawanna Campbell, “It’s Raining Men”
with LRFD, NLRFD, NLRPD, Were-Elvis and others
For years Tawanna Campbell has been a beacon, leading the way for Arkansas’ burgeoning
Soul musical scene. An all-encompassing performer, Tawanna possesses a heavenly sound,
amazing stage presence and a style all her own.
Sparking comparisons to everyone from Patti LaBelle to Alicia Keys to Aretha Franklin,
Tawanna does not allow herself or her music to be pigeonholed. Her musical acumen is
eclectic and dynamic. She’s performed at Easter Sunrise services, Jazz festivals and classical concerts. She’s even provided the musical backdrop for another Arkansas gem, Academy Award winner Mary Steenburgen. A little known fact is that in addition to being an award-winning actress
Steenburgen is also a songwriter and has collaborated with Tawanna on several songs for Universal Records.
A devoted protege’ of musical luminary and veteran Broadway performer Lawrence Hamilton, Tawanna never
fails to impress. Whether performing soul stirring, down home gospel classics, legendary soul hits or contemporary R&B Tawanna gives her all to guarantee an outstanding performance. Tawanna’s soothing, smooth and
moving tones have long served as the Natural State’s voice.
Chase Perryman, “Midnight Rider”
Blending southern-rock, blues, and modern alternative rock, Chase Perryman’s music
is wonderfully eclectic. His voice is engaging and warm, and his lyrics are heartfelt. He
writes how he feels, what he knows and he sings from the very depths of his soul.
Perryman released his debut album, “Songs For the Sirens,” in 2009 before being discovered by Archetype Records, an indie label based out of Atlanta. His sophomore album,
“All Things Invisible,” was recorded with Archetype Records in 2011. They have since
parted ways and Perryman is now producing his own music again and has promised free
music for life for all of the fans that subscribe to his email list.
Perryman and his band ‘The People Familiar with the Situation’ are currently working on recording Perryman’s
third album, ‘The Storm of Us.’ Even though the free music his subscribers receive is primarily acoustic, make
no mistake about it – this album is a rock record that truly showcases the live band experience. It’s planned
release is in the spring of 2013. For more information visit www.chaseperryman.com..
Leah Patterson, “Stay”
