Opportunities for Nonprofits: Grants Available to Support Mecklenburg County Goals

Nonprofits are the beating heart of Charlotte-Mecklenburg. They provide an array of services and programs that make our community a better place to live, such as affordable housing, literacy, healthcare, early childhood development, career readiness, and much more.
