Crisis Assistance Ministry

Ring the bell for Round 2!!!

After the rousing success of our first event last year, the Greater Charlotte Apartment Association (GCAA) is excited that its members are continuing this unique way to give back to the community with our Giving Tuesday Podcast!

This year, you can expect all of the same fun as last year with a whole new set of fun events and things to take part in, or watch your friends do!! And like last year, we are raising funds for our friends at Crisis Assistance Ministry.

On Tuesday, December 3rd (Giving Tuesday), Bill Clements, Morning Perks Podcast host, and John DeMario will be your host for the "telethon" in the hopes of raising money for Crisis Assistance Ministry. Giving Tuesday is a global movement that aims to encourage people to spread generosity through philanthropy. Giving Tuesday takes place every year on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday. Ultimately, the day serves as a reminder for people to give back in whatever amount, form, or act of kindness they can.

Last year was such an overwhelming success, we've upped our goal...a lot. We are hoping to raise $50,000 this year, and we know the great people in our industry can make it happen!!

The team at GCAA will soon share details on how to join OR swing by during the live event to donate in person! Make plans to be a part of the new way that the GCAA is thinking big on Giving Tuesday!

Now that we’ve moved from the sugar rush of Halloween into the fully peppermint-scented days of the holiday season, the Greater Charlotte Apartment Association (GCAA) is hoping that its members will embrace a new and unique way to give back to the community!

This year, the GCAA will be hosting an inaugural LIVE Morning Perks Podcast via Zoom, with the goal of engaging our membership to raise money for the nonprofit, Crisis Assistance Ministry.
