Fellowship Overview
The John M. Belk Impact Fellowship honors the legacy of John M. Belk – a man who exemplified servant leadership and consistently sought out ways to lift up others.
The Fellowship was developed in partnership with the John M. Belk Endowment, an organization that focuses its work on “creating pathways to and through postsecondary education for underrepresented students.” The Fellowship is a natural extension of this vision, as Fellows are fulltime college students placed at organizations at the forefront of the fight for educational justice and opportunity. The aim is to create a disruptive force for educational equity in the state of North Carolina, empowering Fellows by ultimately creating the next generation of education change leaders.
