Nan Ogburn Cullman Education Endowment Grant

The Nan Ogburn Cullman Education Endowment for Johnston County Schools is a fund of the North Carolina Community Foundation.

The endowment was established through the estate of the late Nan Cullman, a Johnston County native who led an extraordinary life as a professional singer and civic leader in Westchester County, NY, and was a worldwide traveler and explorer.

The Nan Ogburn Cullman Education Endowment supports public education in Johnston County in the areas of art, travel and leadership.

The Nan Ogburn Cullman Education Endowment for Johnston County was created to support Smithfield-Selma Senior High School faculty and staff in giving grants to school programs that promote the arts, travel and leadership among students.
