Freedom School Partners (FSP) believes every child deserves the opportunity to discover the joy of reading and the confidence to shape their future. Through a six-week summer program, FSP combats learning loss in Charlotte by serving K–8 students who need it most. In partnership, our mission is to inspire scholars to love reading and learning, believe in themselves, and create extraordinary futures. But we can’t do it alone. Volunteers are at the heart of Freedom School.

Every 3rd Saturday of the month, our team serves in the Free Store Production Area, where volunteers sort, inspect, and organize donated clothing, shoes, and household items. These items are stocked in the Free Store, which provides essentials to families in crisis—at no charge.
