Good Deeds: Business Volunteer Council

Students at Paw Creek Elementary watched an empty field of dirt and mulch transform into a brand new, state-of-the-art playground in April, thanks to more than 100 volunteers brought together through the Business Volunteer Council. The children created their idea of the perfect playground in January, and then the BVC leadership team raised the money and organized the manpower to make the dream a reality for this 10th anniversary playground build. The council includes leaders from Charlotte Center City Partners, Carolinas Healthcare System and Wells Fargo. It is the ninth year that the group has partnered with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools to build a playground at one of its schools.
