Village Realty and Ocracoke Island Realty have entered into an agreement with The Outer Banks Community Foundation to award annual scholarships to graduating seniors from northeastern North Carolina planning on pursuing higher education and having shown good academic performance.

While The Outer Banks Community Foundation will administer the endowment fund, a committee comprised of employees from Village Realty and Ocracoke Island Realty will choose the annual recipients of this scholarship. Graduate and/or graduating seniors, including home-schooled and those having earned GEDs, from Dare, Currituck, Hyde, Tyrrell, Washington, Camden or Pasquotank Counties will be eligible to receive the scholarship.

The Foundation is a non-profit corporation which serves as a community foundation for the benefit of citizens of the Outer Banks. This endowment, and others managed by the Foundation, are a resource for future generations to meet the challenges of their times. 

Locally owned and managed, Village Realty is a full service real estate company with offices in Nags Head, Corolla and Columbia, NC, and recently celebrated their 20th anniversary on the Outer Banks. With a reputation for "Exceptional Homes, Extraordinary Customer Service,"  Village Realty manages over 600 vacation rental homes from Corolla to South Nags Head. Ocracoke Island Realty is the largest real estate and vacation rental company on Ocracoke Island.
