☕️ RECAP | COFFEE & CONVERSATIONS: RECLAIM YOUR VOTE

Coffee, community, and conversations that matter! 🗣️✨

At Coffee & Conversations: Reclaim Your Vote, we created space for meaningful dialogue about the issues shaping everyday life in Charlotte.

From housing and preserving our city’s history to bridging generational gaps, engaging young voters, and expanding access to community resources, every conversation reminded us of the importance of staying informed and connected.

We also explored three major amendments on the ballot, creating opportunities for questions, discussion, and greater civic awareness.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us, shared their perspectives, and helped make this gathering meaningful! ❤️

Special shoutout to Archive CLT A Black woman owned cafe for hosting us and providing a welcoming space for community connection!

Your voice matters. Stay informed. Stay engaged. Keep showing up. 🗳️
