Congratulations to the SEED20 Class of 2023! The ten nonprofit leaders took the stage on Thursday, April 27, and wowed us with their compelling stories of how they are making the greater Charlotte region a better place! The Children’s Theater of Charlotte was a buzz with excitement and energy as audience members piled in to support our nonprofit community. Award prizes given out totaled more than $32,000 and so far, we have been able to raise over $51,000, including Wells Fargo’s generous match. Thank You to our corporate sponsors, cultivators, audience members, and SVP Partners (donor volunteers) for making it possible to bring SEED20 back to the stage this year! Because of your support, over $82,000 went to support nonprofit innovators addressing tough social challenges in the Charlotte region!
