2024 Founding Cohort
The people who bet first.
In 2024, fifteen community members committed early support that became the first Founding Members of Network Charlotte. Their contributions funded the mission before the mission had proof; they made everything that followed possible.
Thank you.
We would not be where we are today without our Founding Members. Their early support allowed us to dream bigger and serve better. Every free workshop, every jobseeker who walks into a room they couldn't have afforded to enter, every connection made across a table Network Charlotte set — traces back to their belief in this community.

Support the Foundation today.
The Foundation still runs on the same principle that started it: individual and corporate support keeps the doors open for the people who need this community most.
