Mission
In 2023, the John M. Belk Endowment joined other organizations in leading the "NC Reconnect" effort, focused on engaging adults in North Carolina who have not completed a post-secondary credential and connecting them to educational pathways at their local community colleges that lead to improved career opportunities. In addition to making grants to community colleges in the respective cohorts, the Endowment covered the cost of communications and marketing services essential to the initiative's success.
