Meet Foundation President - Dr. Paul A. Norman

Friends,

Our community is built on the belief that when we invest in people, we build a stronger future for everyone. Through our community initiatives and scholarship program, we are committed to creating opportunities, uplifting lives, and empowering the next generation to succeed.

Our community initiatives focus on education, mentorship, outreach, and service. Some of our outreach and service initiatives has included providing fans and space heaters to the community, turkey drive, shoe drive, feeding the homeless, and sending students to various leadership camps in North Carolina and out of state. These programs address real needs by providing resources, guidance, and encouragement to individuals and families striving for growth and stability. Each initiative is designed to create lasting impact and foster a spirit of unity, leadership, and service.

A key part of this mission is our Scholarship Fund. As the cost of education continues to rise, many talented and motivated students face financial barriers that threaten their ability to pursue higher education or vocational training. Scholarships made possible through generous donations help relieve these burdens, allowing students to focus on their academic goals and personal development. Over the past three years PLECF has been able to support over thirty students including providing over $35,000.00 in scholarship donations.

Your support plays a vital role in making this work possible. Every contribution, no matter the amount—directly supports community programs and scholarships that change lives. When you give, you are not simply donating; you are investing in hope, opportunity, and the future of our community.

We invite you to partner with us by
donating today. Together, we can expand our reach, support more students, and continue building a stronger, more compassionate community for generations to come.

Thank you for your generosity and commitment to making a difference.

Dr. Paul Andrew Norman, President of PLECF
