Abstract:

NC Community Shares is a new charity group which donates to community groups that have limited access to traditional funding sources. The Durham-based alternative fund is similar to the United Way and gets donations from citizen payroll contributions. The group will donate money this year to the Clean Water Fund, North Carolinians Against Racist and Religions Violence, the Rural Advancement Fund, and the Atlantic Center for Research in Education.
