LUCILLE O’NEAL & MEGAN MARSHALL - “MOST INSPIRATIONAL MOMS” IN AMERICA

Lucille O’Neal, mother of NBA All-star Shaquille O’Neal and alumna of the Boys & Girls Clubs and University of Phoenix, helps Award Three Of The Most Inspirational Moms In The Country
With an Undergraduate or Master’s Degree On A Full-Tuition Scholarship

After a nationwide search, three devoted moms have been selected as this year’s “Most Inspirational Moms”--mothers who are doing extraordinary things while inspiring their families as role models, especially when it comes to education and leadership.

The search was conducted by the Boys & Girls Clubs of America and University of Phoenix. All three moms will receive full-tuition scholarships to pursue an undergraduate or master’s degree at University of Phoenix. This scholarship program was designed to promote a culture of family achievement and raise awareness about how the University of Phoenix and Boys & Girls Clubs are creating great futures for parents and youth. The three were chosen from among 80 applicants.

MEGAN MARSHALL, 27, a mom from Utah, who has a 1-year old daughter and a 7-year old stepson, has life-long dreams of starting her own business. She hopes a BS in Business with a concentration in Small Business Management and Entrepreneurship from University of Phoenix can set her on her journey to provide employment for others and improve lives, promote growth and make a positive impact for future generations.
