Our Staff

Invested in Hope. Driven by Experience.

There’s one common belief among all who work at the John M. Belk Foundation: that education is a means to attaining personal fulfillment as well as community vitality.

Our staff’s commitment to the work is indeed impressive, but it’s that vision of building a stronger North Carolina through education that truly motivates us.
