Organizations that Benefit
In 2014 Sodoma Law announced the creation of the Sodoma Law Foundation. The Foundation supports organizations addressing issues to which the firm is deeply committed: those that improve the well-being of children regionally and nationally, and those that support the charitable endeavors of the Mecklenburg County’s legal community. The Sodoma Law Foundation formalizes and expands an ongoing tradition at this leading Family Law practice of significant contributions to these causes. It aggregates the firm’s charitable endeavors, both pro bono work and contributed funds, into areas where they can make the maximum impact.
Pat’s Place Child Advocacy Center
As the only child advocacy center in Mecklenburg County serving children from birth to age 18, Pat’s Place provides a physical environment where a child’s well-being is our first priority, reducing trauma and promoting healing from sexual abuse.
Dreamcatcher Society
The first organization to benefit from the Sodoma Law Foundation, a group devoted to making possible projects that enhance patients quality of care. Nicole and Ron Sodoma have pledged an annual donation, running through at least 2018, on behalf of the Sodoma Law Foundation.
Good Friends Charlotte
It began in 1987 when four good friends put their heads together over lunch. Catherine Browning, Alice Folger, Sally Saussy, and Patty Norman assembled a diverse group of women to serve as the convening committee of what would become known as Good Friends. They raise funds for those who need help and have exhausted all other agencies and resources.

Community Shelter of Union County
The Community Shelter of Union County was operated by Crisis Assistance from 1985 to 1994 as a winter shelter with maximum capacity of 15 male clients. A 1992 study of homelessness in Union County indicated the number of homeless was increasing. The need for comprehensive services to assist those individuals and families was evident.
