What we do

Changing kids’ lives in North Carolina since 1989

Founded and chaired by Rufus Edmisten, former North Carolina Attorney General and Secretary of State, the Foundation for Good Business has been changing the lives of underserved children for 37 years.

Every year, talented students are held back by financial barriers. Through the Super Kids scholarship program, we help promising youth graduate from college through scholarships, mentorship, and support, fostering confidence, resilience, and ultimately—economic prosperity.
