Abstract:
The Stedman Incentive Grant assists non-profit organizations in an effort to save endangered architecturally and historically significant property. The Friends of the John A. Wilkinson Building in Belhaven in Beaufort County received the award for 2001. The Friends, former graduates of this high school built in 1937-38, worked successfully to save the building from being demolished. The grant will aid in repairing the school's electrical system.
