2 organizations dedicated to supporting Charlotte’s most vulnerable community merge

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Two local organizations that help some of Charlotte’s most vulnerable families are now merging.

Thompson Child and Family Focus and A Child’s Place hope the merger will help them close the gap between crucial resources and local families in need.

Both organizations have worked for decades to support those who are homeless or living in poverty and now, they believe the partnership will allow them to help thousands of more students across the Charlotte community.
