Grateful -
I commend your incipient generosity.
There are lots of organizations which work 1:1 with people around this time of year. Local churches and schools often have programs. Tomorrow we are going shopping with funds raised by my 7th grader's homeroom for Christmas gifts for a specific child who has some needs. Getting everything from a football to clothing. (Note that we don't know the child's name, just the specific requests.)
I can't comment specifically on Charlotte, but I am sure you could find someone needy without a lot of effort. The trick is to find an organization in which you have confidence.
Good luck.
- Winston
