Endowments

Thanks to the foresight of Past Presidents Dan Shingleton, Robert S. (Bob) Parker and Dr. Ann Wolfe, NCPHA is privileged to have four endowments that support either the association's educational offerings (Wood Endowment), public health workforce (Scholarship), children's health programs at the local health departments (Wolfe Endowment) and NCPHA's.

All of these endowments are administered through the North Carolina Community Foundation and gifts/honorariums/memorials are tax deductible. Please remember NCPHA in your giving and thanks to all of you who have graciously contributed to these endowments that will forever ensure that public health and NCPHA is supported, in part, by the proceeds of these endowments.
