EP 02: Adrienne & Emmanuel Threatt of Hope Vibes
Husband and wife team Emmanuel & Adrienne Threatt are #relationshipgoals. They’re funny, charming, and clearly best friends. They also Co-Founded Hope Vibes, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping the homeless in Charlotte, North Carolina. They’re raising money for The Hope Tank — an eco-friendly mobile shower and laundry center to support the homeless population in Charlotte, North Carolina. Their goal is to create an environment that promotes hope and gives their guests a renewed sense of dignity and purpose.
