Children are the future of our society and it’s critical that they have positive influences to look up to. 

Though it can feel difficult to change the world, there are many ways to get involved in shaping the future of society. From educating children to volunteering around the community, to creating a difference through non-profit work, there are endless possibilities to make a mark on the world.

This scholarship seeks to honor the memories of John Walker and Christine Horton by supporting students in NC who are pursuing higher education.

Any underrepresented minority or first-generation student in North Carolina who has a background working with children and for non-profits or volunteering organizations may apply for this scholarship if they are pursuing a degree in health or physical education. 

To apply, tell us how you plan to make a positive difference in the world with your career and what your experience was like working with children or non-profits.
