Mission: Mobilizing the power of our community to break the cycle of poverty

Phenomenal Experience

This Journey is for Everyone!


This photo was taken at the Leadership Charlotte Class of 2024 Denim and Diamonds Gala about six weeks ago. Just a few weeks later Jen Wolfe graduated from Leadership Charlotte. I am so proud of her for applying, persevering and graduating.


My experience with Leadership Charlotte was in 2014 and it's something that I will always treasure. The coveted relationships and networking through that experience is what ultimately led me to the United Way of Charlotte County.
