Who benefits from
Angels of '97? Come see our first "Wall of Fame". We will be
honoring our past recipients of Angels of '97 Scholarships
Angels of ’97 began in 1997 to honor
the lives of five students who graduated in spirit only from the North
Mecklenburg Class of ’97. Angels of
’97 has grown in the past years to provide nearly $200,000 to
local High School students to assist with higher education.
The organization has expanded over the years to outreach to other
families in our community that have suffered the loss of a child or
sibling.
Thank you for your
help in our efforts to raise scholarship funds while honoring members of
our youth. Without the support of the media, we would not be where
we are today.

Additionally, Angels
of ’97 has received 501(c)3 status.
