United Way of Greater Charlotte moved into the Ascend Nonprofit Center in January 2020 after the sale of their long-time building in uptown. Their work is focused on addressing economic mobility and racial inequity by investing in neighborhoods and grassroots nonprofits. This includes the Unite Charlotte and Unite Neighborhoods initiatives. They are also the lead nonprofit for A Home For All, a community-wide effort to address housing instability and homelessness. We are proud to support UWGC and the important work they do through our facilities and shared services!
