Charlotte Heart & Wheels: Queen City Scooters Joins Forces for Foster Care
In a city driven by innovation, it’s not just electric scooters that power Charlotte’s streets—compassion does, too. When local nonprofit Least of These Carolinas marked its 10-year anniversary with a charity auction, Queen City Scooters stepped up with a donation that goes beyond business: a custom electric bike and scooter designed to make a real difference.
This heartfelt gesture from Nick Smith, owner of Queen City Scooters, speaks volumes. Having experienced foster care firsthand, Smith knows the value of stability and support—and used his skills to give back in a way that’s deeply personal.
Giving Mobility Real Meaning
Instead of simply writing a check, Smith built a one-of-a-kind electric bike for the auction. It wasn’t just a product—it was a labor of love. That’s the ethos Queen City Scooters brings to every customer: offering personalized, sustainable transportation with community at its core.
More Than Just a Ride
As Charlotte’s e-scooter scene grows, so does Queen City Scooters’ role in shaping it—not only as a retailer and repair shop, but as a local voice in social impact. Whether it’s supporting nonprofits or helping customers transition to eco-friendly commuting, the team blends technical expertise with real-world care.
