SUPPORT THE ACADEMY

INDIVIDUAL SUPPORT

We invite you to support the African American Leadership Academy of Charlotte! Your gift will help increase and strengthen the pipeline of Black executive leaders in the public, private and philanthropic sectors in Charlotte-Mecklenburg. Thank you for investing in current and future generations and helping build a stronger, more diverse community!

CORPORATE AND PHILANTHROPIC SUPPORT

AALAC invites support from corporate, foundation and philanthropic partners through grant funding and individual gifts. A program investment represents a commitment to the mission and support for its overall goals. As the Academy is focused on long-lasting impact and sustainability, multi-year commitments are requested.

Underscored by the goal to provide full investment into building a pipeline of African American leadership in our community, support will cover the full cost of the program for Academy Fellows. Organizations that commit to three-year funding at one of the partnership levels by August 2023 will receive designation as a Founding Partner.
