Educate. Inspire. Change.

Central Piedmont Community College (CPCC) invites you to join its team as it helps others make great and small strides toward personal and professional success.

You can help teach an individual to learn English as a second language or prepare for a GED exam. 

Did you know:

  • In North Carolina more than one million residents cannot read well enough to hold a job.
  • In Mecklenburg County, 20 percent of all adults are considered functionally illiterate.

These statistics are frightening! CPCC's Community Development Program helps local adults learn the basic skills necessary to feel viable in the workforce and the community.

At CPCC you can leave a legacy that reflects not what you took from life,
but what you gave!


"On October 19-25, the spotlight will shine on service when Hollywood writes volunteering into the script of more than 80 TV shows. What happens when an audience of millions gets inspired to give back? A great opportunity!"

Education, Inspiration and Change Happen Everyday

"The tutors have really helped the students and attendance in my class is up because they are able to get one-on-one help when I am not able to help them. I have also seen an increase in math scores when they retake there math test after working with the tutors."
-Cynthia Ham, ABE/GED Instructor, North Campus
 
“It’s so humbling to know that you can step back and touch another human being through something as simple as reading and writing” 
- Joey Popp, Volunteer, Harris Campus ABLE Lab
 
“I do it because I know that they (the students) need help.”
- Alan Levin, Volunteer, Dowd and Harper Campus ABLE Labs
 
“I’m so thankful for the people who are here to help us get our education, because education is so important.”
– Nellie Barbour, Student, Dowd ABLE Lab
