NC gov GOP candidate, Mark Robinson's whole family lived off a federal funded non profit
after his bankruptcies, non payment of taxes, and before his GOP grifting, Mark Robinson and his family sucked up federal dollars. the same guy who preaches how bad the civil rights movement was for Black people.

While Lt. Gov. Mark Robinsons wife told her nonprofits clients that she was shutting down because of her husbands campaign for North Carolina governor, she told a state agency a different story.
For years, Yolanda Hill has led a nonprofit called Balanced Nutrition that helps childcare facilities apply for and receive federal funding for kids meals. Mark Robinson and the couples son and daughter have worked as employees of the Greensboro nonprofit.
Emails and documents obtained by WUNC through a public records request show the abrupt closure relates to an ongoing investigation by the N.C. Department of Health and Human Services, which oversees the childcare center nutrition program.
One issue highlighted in the DHHS records was that Balanced Nutrition at one point didnt have a balanced budget. On a budget spreadsheet for the nonprofit dated 2023, an entry in the document noted that the groups expenses were higher than its income.

Mark Robinson himself worked for the nonprofit in 2018 before he launched his campaign for lieutenant governor. He wrote in his autobiography that Hills success with the nonprofit allowed him to quit his job at a furniture company in 2018 and move toward becoming a candidate.
