    Hope Vibes
    2025/08/05
    This episode is a perfect example of how a single moment of awareness can spark an entire movement. When Emmanuel and Adrienne Threatt went on their first date in uptown Charlotte more than a decade ago, they kept noticing homelessness around them. Specifically, they noticed people struggling with things many of us take for granted: a hot shower, clean laundry, even brushing our teeth. So, they took action. Emmanual and Adrienne join host Pamela Escobar to talk about their non-profit, Hope Vibes. If you're inspired by the Threatt's story, check out their 30 Days to Launch Your Nonprofit Toolkit, built for everyday people who are passionate about making change but overwhelmed by the process.
