What We Do
Playing for Others (PFO) is a leadership training program that combines personal development, service, and the arts to foster leaders who are confident, compassionate, and creative. Serving teenagers rising 8th through 12th grade, this diverse group of teens represents every zip code in and around the Charlotte Mecklenburg area.
Through our core values: Attitude of Gratitude, Acceptance, Accountability, and Action – teens learn to become effective leaders of self and others.
We are cultivating the next generation of leaders, philanthropists, and compassionate human beings.
