Carol Caldwell Scholarship Endowment
The Endowment was established in 1983 to provide financial need-based scholarships for mature students beginning or returning to NC State to complete an undergraduate degree in any college. The scholarship assists a female student of at least 25 years of age who is beginning or returning to study toward an undergraduate degree, while possibly balancing home and work responsibilities along with her academic studies.
The first award in 1984 -85 was only $300. Because of our members’ continued support of this endowment, the corpus has grown to $122,217 as of 12/31/12. With the growth of the corpus, comes the growth in the annual income that allows for larger scholarships. This year’s award was $4,240. As you think of the women who have been touched by this scholarship and the future generations of women to come, please consider a gift to the Carol Caldwell Scholarship Endowment today.
Please bring your endowment gifts and/or table sponsorships to the March meeting or mail to: Carol Caldwell Scholarship Endowment, c/o Ms. Anne Porter ~ Campus Box 7522 ~ Raleigh, NC 27695-7522.
The Carol Caldwell Scholarship Endowment is the NC State University Woman’s Club’s remarkable legacy. Thank you for its creation and continued support!
