Charlotte, N.C., October 29, 2026 – Poettker Construction, a Charlotte-based general contractor, raised $30,000 with its 3rd Annual Poettker Charity Clay Shoot benefiting Dream On 3 Carolinas, a charity dedicated to making sports dreams a reality for children and young adults with life-altering conditions.
“Since we first learned about the mission behind Dream On 3, Poettker has been inspired by the organization’s incredible impact inspiring kids dealing with challenging conditions by helping fulfill a sports dream,” said Keith Poettker, Chairman & CEO of Poettker Construction. “Seeing the enthusiasm of our employees, volunteers, sponsors and trade partners as they rally behind Dream On 3 makes the annual clay shoot especially meaningful. We’re grateful for everyone’s generosity and are proud to support organizations that are making a lasting difference in the lives of children and families across the region.”
Poettker sincerely thanks the host venue, Meadow Wood Farms in Waxhaw, N.C.; the 17 participating teams; and its event sponsors for making this year’s event a success. After just three years, the Annual Poettker Charity Clay Shoot has raised over $130,000 for Dream On 3.
“Poettker Construction has been an incredible partner in helping Dream On 3 make sports dreams come true for kids and young adults living with life-altering conditions,” said Rachel Bozarth, Community Engagement Coordinator, Carolinas for Dream On 3. “A Dream is about so much more than the experience itself. It’s about creating moments of joy, hope, and encouragement that remind our Dreamers that their possibilities extend far beyond their diagnosis. The impact of these experiences lasts long after the Dream, giving Dreamers and their families memories to hold onto and a renewed sense of what’s possible. We are so grateful to Poettker for believing in our mission and helping us create these life-changing experiences.”
