Update on Our Priorities
We remain steadfast in our commitment to our four priorities, driven by our community’s unwavering dedication.

Improving Accessibility
We successfully installed a lift on the first floor of the Foundation in January 2024.

Fostering Discourse
Twenty-nine junior and senior scholars completed the inaugural Dialogue and Discourse program in March 2024, providing them with the tools and resources to build their capacity for better communication.

Removing Barriers
We hosted our first open house event for North Carolina nominees and their families in August 2023.

Maximizing our Network
We launched Morehead-Cain Alumni Journeys to provide unique travel experiences for “cousins” of all ages.

A Look Back
From two distinct scholar classes embarking on their journeys as Morehead-Cains to alumni forging connections through travel, the 2023–2024 academic year was marked by collaboration, learning, and transformation.
"I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the Morehead-Cain Foundation for supporting my collegiate endeavors and for inspiring me to be the best version of myself each and every day. It was the honor of my life to be a member of the scholar community."
Daughtry Williams | Class of 2024
