The C.R.B. Educational Foundation was endowed from residual funds of the Commission for Relief in Belgium. Its operations
included the sponsoring of Belgian-American exchange fellowships, the fostering of Belgian-American cultural relations, and
aid to child health and nutrition programs in Belgium.
In 1938, the C.R.B. Educational Foundation changed its name to Belgian-American Educational Foundation.
