The Belk Foundation was established as a memorial to Dr. John M. Belk and W. H. Belk, founders of the Belk mercantile organization. Many churches, colleges, hos pitals and other institutions have been assisted by it. In 1958 The Belk Foundation began its scholarship program as an ad ditional means of providing bet ter opportunities in life, and the number of annual awards has consistently increased. The scholarships, paying $500 to the college chosen by each winner, are available to high school graduates in the 18-state area served by the Belk, Leg gett and Efird department stores.
