Show Up & Make It Count: Do Good Week 2026!

It is officially SHARE Charlotte’s 10th Annual Do Good Week (April 20-24)! This week, the entire Queen City is coming together to show that a little bit of good goes a long way.

As a proud local non-profit, Allegro Foundation is excited to be part of this community-wide celebration of giving. While National Volunteer Month is all about the "heart," Do Good Week is all about the "action!"

3 Ways to "Do Good" with Allegro this week:
1. Give Your Talent: Are you a creative soul? We have sewing and craft projects that help our students!
2. Give Your Time: Spend just 30 minutes in one of our movement education classes and see the impact firsthand.
3. Give a Shoutout: Not able to volunteer this week? You can still "Do Good" by sharing this post! Helping us spread the word about our FREE programs for children with disabilities is a huge help.

Charlotte is known for its generosity, and we are so grateful to be part of a community that looks out for one another. Let's make this the biggest Do Good Week yet!

As children explore the world, sensory experiences are key to their development. Pumpkins offer a unique tactile and visual experience, helping children learn about textures, shapes, and colors. For children living with disabilities, sensory play is especially beneficial, as it can improve language, social skills, and motor abilities. Check out this photo of Allegro students enjoying their pumpkin adventure!
