Vibe team members contributed 7,503 community impact hours, setting the bar high and showing what’s possible when we come together.
Our impact is centered around the belief that financial stability starts with addressing basic human needs.
This year, our incredible team didn’t just talk about making a difference; they rolled up their sleeves, donated their time, and worked hand-in-hand with our community to tackle food and housing insecurity and promote financial literacy.
Here’s a look at how we made waves in 2024.
Feeding Futures: Fighting Food Insecurity
Food is more than just fuel; it’s the foundation of a healthy life.
This year, our team dedicated 2,076 hours to help neighbors throughout our communities stay nourished. Through partnerships with organizations like Metro Food Rescue and Lighthouse of Oakland County, we made sure that families in crisis didn’t have to choose between putting food on the table and paying their bills.
Our Member Referral Program turned new accounts into 90 meals each for Metro Food Rescue, proving that small actions can lead to big impacts.
And with local food pantries like Hospitality House, we sorted, packed, and distributed groceries, ensuring every box delivered was a box of hope for a better tomorrow.
Building Foundations: Tackling Housing Insecurity
Our team devoted 2,423 hours to housing-focused initiatives this year, working alongside Habitat for Humanity and Humble Design to support families transitioning out of homelessness.
Our team members also participated in monthly volunteer events at HAVEN of Oakland County, supporting their vital work in providing safe shelter and resources for survivors of domestic violence.
On our annual Impact Day, 1,195 impact hours went toward revitalizing parks and homes; because a vibrant community starts with beautiful, welcoming spaces.
In December, we teamed up with Operation Good Cheer and Humble Design to bring holiday gifts to 32 low-income individuals, making the season a little brighter for families who needed it most.
Together with these incredible organizations, we made a tangible impact, helping families and individuals find stability and hope for a brighter future. Housing is more than just a roof over someone’s head—it’s the foundation for building a life of security, opportunity, and dignity.
Empowering Minds: Financial Literacy for All
In 2024, we clocked 239 hours across 52 financial literacy events, reaching over 1,000 individuals. Whether we were teaching kids the basics of saving or guiding seniors on identity protection, these sessions planted seeds of financial empowerment.
A standout highlight? The South Lyon East High School Financial Reality Fair, where 360 students got a crash course in real-world budgeting and financial decision-making.
We’re all about making financial education accessible, engaging, and impactful for every generation.
Beyond Basics: Small Businesses and Beautification
Community isn’t just about individuals; it’s about the places and businesses that bring us together. This year, we spent over 2,600 hours supporting small businesses and beautifying neighborhoods.
From planting flowers to joining community events, our goal was simple: create spaces and opportunities that inspire.
