#SpotlightOnCLT Military Appreciation

#SpotlightOnCLT: Military Appreciation

#SpotlightOnCLT is SHARE Charlotte’s monthly content series that highlights a different cause or issue each month.  It is one way that we shine a light on various nonprofit organizations as a beacon to help educate the community and explore how to get involved.  

For July, we are highlighting Military Appreciation and all of the many wrap-around services for military veterans and families that Charlotte nonprofits offer.

Camping With Cradle

The Camping With Cradle outdoor mentoring program is a means for young adults to become more familiar with the outdoors. The program is designed as a group mentoring model; each outing will allow a group of approximately 6-8 youth to experience an outdoor trip.  SHARE Charlotte spoke with Dr. Keith Cradle, Executive Director of this program, to learn more about its impact on our community, in our #SpotlightOnCLT Great Outdoors series.

Eagle Rock Camp

Eagle Rock Camp is a family saving, suicide prevention organization that serves at-risk veteran and military families.

Today's highlight for #SpotlightOnCLT Great Outdoors is Eagle Rock Camp.  More than helping Charlotteans get outside, they are changing the lives of military families.  Read below for some incredible impact stories on how they are healing kids, teens and parents with the great outdoors.

Partners for Parks

Taking cues from similar events around the country and the world, Open Streets 704 aims to build a better, healthier, connected community by encouraging Charlotte and Mecklenburg area residents to walk, bicycle, and experience the city together in a way that’s just not possible in a car.
