Charlotte Area Fund, Inc. proudly celebrates the accomplishments of our June 2025 graduating class—individuals who exemplify resilience, determination, and the power of transformation.
This year’s ceremony was made even more powerful through inspiring testimonials from our graduates, CAF team member Teresa Hughes, and CEO Nick Wharton. Their voices speak volumes about what’s possible when opportunity meets hard work.
Watch as our graduates share how CAF’s workforce training programs helped them gain not only skills—but confidence, purpose, and a pathway to self-sufficiency.
We also extend deep gratitude to the families, friends, partners, and staff who supported each step of the journey. Your belief and encouragement have made this milestone moment possible.
On behalf of the entire CAF family—we are proud to have walked beside you, and we can’t wait to see where you go next.
