The Belk Honored Educator Scholarship honors teachers across North Carolina who devote their careers to providing quality education for all children. The Belk Foundation, a family foundation based in Charlotte, NC, is focused on supporting quality education by investing in schools and organizations that work aggressively to ensure all students graduate from high school and continue on an intentional path toward college, career, and life. Now in its third generation of family leadership, The Belk Foundation serves as the public expression of gratitude and commitment shown by the family that created the Belk department store organization, which was founded by William Henry Belk and Dr. John Montgomery Belk in 1888. In the past decade, The Belk Foundation has distributed many millions to charities across the Southeast.
