CHARLOTTE, N.C. (5/11/20) – SHARE Charlotte, a one-stop shop for connecting with 400+ Mecklenburg County nonprofits, today announced its 2020 Board of Directors that includes six returning members and three new additions.
In these crazy times, $50 goes a long way. We did some math. $50 could buy you:
A Standard Netflix subscription to binge-watch your favorite shows for 3.85 months (Stretch the dollar even further with a Disney+ subscription for 7.14 months)
An Amazon Prime subscription to aid in retail therapy
A take-out meal for two from a local Charlotte restaurant (don’t forget to tip!)
“He who has health, has hope; and he who has hope, has everything.”- Thomas Carlyle
The status of our health influences almost every other aspect of our lives, and without good health many things around us tend to crumble- hope included. Luckily, there are local nonprofits that work hard to keep our community, and in particular some our most vulnerable neighbors, cared for and in good health.
Terrie Reeves, founder of Empower Health America, and board member of Carolina Breast Friends, is using her talents for GOOD to help local nonprofits through this tough time.
SHARE Charlotte is so grateful for official partner of DO GOOD Week: Home Edition, Wells Fargo, for their support of this year’s celebration as well as all the GOOD they do for the Charlotte community year round and, in particular, now in the face of crisis.

Ross Danis admits he teared up when he learned Meck Ed was getting a check for $1,000 from the Carolina Panthers.
“I could just cry. When you run a nonprofit and you get a call like that, especially these days, it really did bring a tear to my eye,” Danis says.
Meck Ed works with high school seniors at some of Charlotte’s most challenged high schools getting them college and career ready.
SHARE Charlotte is incredibly grateful for DO GOOD Week: Home Edition official partner YMCA of Greater Charlotte. In addition to supporting this year’s local celebration of National Volunteer Week, during this time of crisis, The YMCA is pivoting efforts to serve its employees, members, and our community at large by doing things such as providing free childcare for essential healthcare employees and creating a staff relief fund.
SHARE Charlotte is incredibly grateful for official partner of DO GOOD Week: Home Edition, Allstate, and was overwhelmed by their unwavering support and ability to embrace all of the necessary changes that were made to this year’s local celebration of National Volunteer Week in response to the current pandemic.
