UrbanPromise Charlotte is a brand committed to transforming the city of Charlotte, North Carolina. While this rapidly growing city is known for its bustling banking industry and vibrant arts scene, it also grapples with stark economic and educational inequality. The brand recognizes the disparity in educational opportunities between low-income students and their more privileged peers.

In fact, some of the lowest-income schools in Charlotte have graduation rates below 60%, compared to the nearly 100% graduation rates in affluent schools. UrbanPromise is dedicated to involving teenagers in the process of revitalizing their neighborhoods through tutoring and mentoring younger children. By following the UrbanPromise model, the brand believes that a new generation of young leaders can bring spiritual, economic, and social change to their communities and the entire city.

Through programs like afterschool programs, summer camp, targeted literacy, and counseling, UrbanPromise aims to empower and support underserved youth and address the challenges that Charlotte faces.
