In love being subscribed to Charlotte on the Cheap. It keeps me connected to what is happening and making the best of making days to enjoy with my family an friends. Mostly family. I don’t think there is any interest missing from the quest to give you information to the local things to do, or take advantage of in order to escape from our busy sometimes overstructured days. Deals and free stuff to do every day enjoy and connect. My Granddaughter loves for us to find things to do, places to go and explore. Kinda our daily ritual.
Thank you for helping me to connect with her and enjoy doing this daily activity through this service.

I’m a Mother/member of the Blue Star Mothers of Charlotte NC15. We are Mothers whose children are active duty, a Veteran or in bootcamp. We are a National Organizational chartered by the 86th Congress. Our chapter was installed in Charlotte May 2017. Our mission is to support our Military, Veterans and their family members. We support their humanitarian needs: clothes, food, and hygiene products. We provide food to several Veteran families every Sunday. We provide furniture for them when they receive their VASH voucher to move from under a bridge to his or her own apartment. There are several Veteran families with kids that can not afford to purchase tickets. Therefore, winning these free tickets will put smiles on their faces and gratitude in their hearts. Their parents served us, let’s serve them!
