"What Sustain Charlotte does for the city of Charlotte is so incredibly important because they help us keep sustainability and the environment top of mind as the city grows." 
~ Dante Anderson, Mayor Pro Tem, Charlotte City Council District 1 Representative 
"Sustain Charlotte educates, empowers, calls people to action, and includes everyone. That tells me it's an organization that cares about people."
~ Reverend Janet Garner-Mullins, Steering Committee Member of the Charlotte Regional Transportation Coalition 

“I moved to Charlotte about 14 years ago and absolutely hated it because I had to own a car and had never had to before. Once I looked for options to get around without a car, this is the one organization that wanted to solve the same problems that I have. Sustain Charlotte is advocating for the right things so that we don’t have to be dependent on cars.” 

~Jeet Pawar, Sustain Charlotte Supporter

"I have been impressed with the efforts of Sustain Charlotte to bring many different people and organizations in our community together to identify and implement solutions that improve our city's sustainability. Some of the things that Sustain Charlotte is doing, saying, and being, in our community are things that we don’t have another group out there able to be, do and say. So to me, Sustain Charlotte is an important voice for not only the environment but for the lifestyle that all of us hope to have in this community long-term. And I hope Sustain Charlotte continues to sustain.”

– Anthony Foxx, Former US Secretary of Transportation + Former Mayor of Charlotte

 
"Sustain Charlotte's advocacy helps us expand what we do, from a facilities and programmatic standpoint."
~ Bert Lynn, Capital Planning Division Director, Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation
 

"The education I have received from Sustain Charlotte -- through publications and events -- has allowed me to be more vocal with my friends and others to discuss issues that matter to me and should matter to everyone."
~ Nicole Campbell, Sustain Charlotte supporter

"I think Charlotte needs some help in going in the right direction with sustainable growth, so I'm pleased Sustain Charlotte is here, because they are definitely pushing that envelope. I feel more at ease because of what they are doing. I think everyone should get involved and support Sustain Charlotte's work because it's important -- because we live here and this is our home."

~Holli Adams, Sustain Charlotte supporter

 

“As an elected official, I really appreciate the work that Sustain Charlotte does. They bring expertise, and a knowledge base, that helps extend what we have to do and what we have to understand every day and every way in keeping Charlotte on track to be the kind of high-quality community that [makes] people want to continue to come here. And being a sustainable community is going to be a big contributor to that.”

– John Autry, former NC Representative
