#AnimalsofCLT: So You Think You Can Bark?
Written by: Grant Stimmel
Quick, what are you doing on February 1st?
Settling in for another night of Netflix?
Wrong!
You’re going to have to watch House of Cards another night because February 1st plays host to the first ever So You Think You Can Bark. An outrageously fun night of pup-inspired entertainment benefiting Charlotte’s own Stand For Animals.

#AnimalsofCLT: Expand Your Family Tree this Holiday Season
Expand Your Family Tree this Holiday Season
The human-animal bond is unlike any other. We don’t speak the same language, yet that proves to be no obstacle for the invisible tie that binds us with our pets. It’s a relationship unlike any other. Despite all our differences, animals and humans bring out the best in each other and the Humane Society of Charlotte brings this reality to homes across the city and beyond every day.
#AnimalsofCLT: Animal Adoption League
#AnimalsofCLT: Animal Adoption League
By Grace Kennedy
"Until there are none, rescue one." Animal Adoption League's motto gets straight to the heart of their approach as a foster-based rescue organization: they won't give up until they have found loving homes for every animal that comes to them in need.
Spotlight Series: #AnimalsofCLT
Dogs, horses and raptors- oh my!
This December, SHARE Charlotte’s Spotlight Series: #AnimalsofCLT will focus in on our local nonprofit partners who care for the animals of Charlotte that are in need of shelter, food, rehabilitation or maybe even a companion. The nonprofit organizations we are highlighting this month serve the #AnimalsofCLT in a variety of different ways, all equally important to the wellbeing of our furry, feathered, and fanged friends.
#EverydayPhilanthropist: Kindness in Action
Some people give back by helping to build houses, other people serve meals, and some people knit.
SHARE Charlotte received an unexpected package filled to the brim with hand knitted scarves and hats and no explanation except a simple note that read:
“Share Charlotte, Please give these hats and scared to the homeless and the needy. I am an 88 year old knitter and do not know the charities who can use them. Sincerely, Elaine.”

#RecoveringHope: Hope Haven
“I used and abused drugs for more than thirty years... I lost everything – my home, my family, my job. I lost me.”

And he’s not alone. Hope Haven has helped thousands of Charlotte families break the vicious cycle of drug addiction since 1976.
