About Us
Global Exchange is a Charlotte-based nonprofit dedicated to fostering cross-cultural understanding, education, and connection through immersive experiences and community engagement.
We bring together expats, global professionals, students, and culture‑seekers to share traditions, ideas, and stories that inspire global friendship and collaboration. From curated wine tastings and cultural dinners to networking socials and volunteer initiatives, we create spaces where diversity becomes connection, and where every voice is valued.
Our Mission & Impact
At Global Exchange, our mission is simple yet powerful: To connect people across cultures through education, community, and shared experience. We believe that real change begins with human connection. When people from different nations, backgrounds, and perspectives come together to learn from one another, barriers fall and understanding grows.
From our signature Passport to Wine experiences and cultural dinners to educational dialogues and community service initiatives, Global Exchange brings people together in meaningful ways that celebrate diversity and build belonging.
Our programs inspire collaboration between expats, professionals, students, and culture‑seekers, creating a ripple effect that strengthens communities, opens minds, and encourages unity through inclusion. Headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, Global Exchange is expanding regionally and internationally, fostering a global movement rooted in respect, empathy, and the belief that when cultures connect, communities thrive.
