UrbanPromise Charlotte

 Our mission at UrbanPromise is to provide Charlotte’s children and youth with the spiritual, academic, and social development necessary to become Christian leaders determined to restore their communities.

Our vision is three-fold: Reach a Child, Raise a Leader, Restore Community. UrbanPromise reaches younger children through afterschool and summer programs and raises high school leaders (called “StreetLeaders”) who are employed as mentors and counselors in these programs. Our ultimate goal is to raise a new generation of indigenous Christian leaders that is determined to make Charlotte a fully integrated city where social, spiritual, and economic capital flow between neighborhoods.
