The Carl D Hodges Sr Memorial Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization, is seeking the support of business and community leaders to aid in providing financial assistance to future local students who will be attending North Carolina A&T State University. Funds raised at our event will contribute to the Carl D Hodges, Sr. Memorial Endowment Fund at North Carolina A&T State University. This newly created endowment honors Carl Sr., who passed away in 2020. Once fully funded, this scholarship will support students with a minimum GPA of 3.5 from Durham, Cumberland, or Northampton counties in North Carolina. Carl Sr., was a distinguished alumnus of A&T, graduating with honors in 1954 with a B.S. in Agricultural Education. He went on to dedicate 35 years of service to the N.C. Cooperative Extension Service; ultimately serving as NC’s (and the nation’s) first Black County Director. He was an active member of the Durham Alumni Chapter, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc, and other community organizations. He established a legacy of Aggie Pride that has continued to flow in his family from generation to generation.
