DEVELOPING A CULTURE OF SCHOOLANTHROPY
Schoolanthropy is a funny-sounding word with the power to redefine education in our community.
Nearly 150,000 works of art in a single collection. That’s Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, steward of this community’s greatest treasures: our children and our future. The CMS Foundation is working to generate financial investment to develop the finest culture of education in the nation right here in Mecklenburg County. We invite you to become a schoolanthropist and support our teachers and students to build an even better, brighter and more dynamic community.
