About Marcus Brandon

Executive Director

Marcus Brandon is the executive director of CarolinaCAN: The North Carolina Campaign for Achievement Now, a statewide movement working to give every North Carolina child access to a great public school. Marcus hails from a long line of North Carolinians. Growing up in Guilford County with a family entrenched in the civil rights movement, Marcus learned the value of public service at an early age. Ever since he could walk, he was out working to better his community: passing out fliers, knocking on doors and organizing with his family to advocate for equal opportunity and equal access.
