Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Do Greater Charlotte is a non-profit empowering communities to do greater by providing tools and technology, spaces and community for youth in underserved communities to build their creative confidence and turn their ideas into future opportunities. We do it through a platform that facilitates creative collisions with youth and the creative community by providing training in design, entrepreneurship and creative technology.

Activities or mission (Part I)

We build creative confidence in youth through training in design, entrepreneurship and digital media so they can turn their opportunities into future opportunities.

  • Do Greater Charlotte is committed to empowering youth and young adults by providing immersive training in innovation, entrepreneurship, and creative trades. In 2022, we launched the Do Greater Charlotte Creative Lab, an 8,000 square foot innovation and training hub located in Charlotte?s historic West Side. This space serves as a dynamic engine for upward mobility, intentionally designed to provide access to the tools, mentors, and real-world experiences often missing in under-resourced communities. Since opening the Lab, we have served over 1200 youth and 5000 creative entrepreneurs and adults through our in-house programs, workshops, cohort-based trainings, and open lab experiences. Our programs are tailored to support individuals ages 13 to 24 as they develop the skills, confidence, and creative capacity to thrive in the digital economy. The Creative Lab functions as a multi-purpose learning and innovation center, offering: 1-Entrepreneurship training through our Start Upward Programs. 2-Digital creative and technical skills development in media production, marketing, design, and technology 3-Workforce development support including career readiness and job placement pipelines 4-Small business support services for underestimated and early-stage entrepreneurs We continue to grow our impact through partnerships with local schools, nonprofit organizations, and industry leaders to ensure that Charlotte?s next generation of creators and entrepreneurs can access the opportunity, mentorship, and economic connections they need to do greater.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.

What this page reflects
