Why Community Engagement Matters?

Community engagement is at the heart of Power Up USA’s mission because it fosters connection, collaboration, and empowerment within underserved populations. By engaging directly with the community, we build trust, ensure that our programs reflect local needs. Our events, such as the Charlotte Black Film Festival and Queen City Arts Festival, serve as platforms for creative expression, while initiatives like digital literacy training and access to creative workspaces help bridge the digital divide. Meaningful engagement enables Power Up USA to drive lasting social impact, stimulate economic development, and empower individuals to realize their potential. #CommunityMatters
