Charitable Giving

We love getting to support our communities through event sponsorships, volunteering and charitable giving. In 2025, we invested more than $500,000 in local sponsorships and contributed over 900 volunteer hours, showing up for the people and causes that matter most.

From bringing 659 participants together at the World’s Largest Cake Walk to donating $20,000 to organizations like Special Olympics Michigan and be nice., it all adds up to stronger communities and meaningful impact.
