About the Foundation:

For nearly 25 years, the Paul and Carol David Foundation has made a significant impact on the lives of individuals in Stark County and beyond. The late Paul David was a lifelong resident of Stark County and the President and founder of the Camelot Music store chain. In 1980, Mr. David established a scholarship program (named the Joseph and Marie David Scholarship Program) in memory of his late mother and father to assist underprivileged high school seniors in furthering their education. Having come from humble beginnings himself, Mr. David vowed to assist those less fortunate, and the scholarship program was only the beginning of his vast philanthropic contributions to his beloved community. The foundation, now known as The Paul and Carol David Foundation, not only continues to provide scholarship opportunities to Stark County students but has expanded its scope to include supporting: Institutions and agencies that promote the mental and physical health and well-being of disadvantaged children; Catholic affiliated organizations in Stark County that offer assistance and comfort to disadvantaged children; Educational institutions through the funding of specific academic programs.
