2008 Endowment Grant Application (PDF)
2008 Educational Scholarship Application (PDF) ENDOWMENT FUND & EDUCATIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS The NCAS Endowment Fund was established within the Triangle Community Foundation in February 1988 with a contribution from North Carolina Amateur Sports (NCAS), host of the US Olympic Festival-'87. Fifty percent of the proceeds from the Festival were given to the United States Olympic Committee to advance the Olympic movement in the United States. The North Carolina Amateur Sports Board of Directors voted to placed the remaining profits in a permanent endowment that would promote amateur athletics in North Carolina. To date, more than $500,000 has been distributed to individuals and organizations in North Carolina. The deadline to submit 2008 grant and scholarship applications is July 10.
