The Alex C. Walker Educational and Charitable Foundation
has filled a unique niche among grant-giving institutions in that it addresses issues related to the causes of market

The trust operates as a family foundation with Dr. Thomas Walker, Jr. and Barrett P. Walker serving as family trustees and PNC Bank serving as the
corporate trustee.
