Take 10

2015 Knight Cities Challenge winner

​We took 10 minutes to make Charlotte more successful

A small investment can have a big return. Between October 2015 and June 2016,
150 City of Charlotte employees took 10 minutes each week to engage one person
in our community in conversation about how we can make Charlotte better.
