Grow Financial Helps Fight Hunger During the Holiday Season

Goodwill runs high during the holiday season, making it the perfect time for the Grow Financial Foundation to step up and help fight hunger!

This November, the Grow Financial Foundation, in conjunction with our generous Grow members and team members, collected and donated much-needed food items to help local organizations within our Florida and South Carolina footprints.

Grow Financial Foundation board members Khenh Vong and ChristiLee Russell took the reins to ensure our giving spirit came to life through the food drive.

“I truly believe in the power of kindness to change lives. And that always begins with one person, one action, one decision to support another human being in some positive way,” Vong said.

“As a foundation, our mission is to give back and that is exactly what we hoped to and did accomplish through this holiday food drive,” Russell added.

We’re proud to have contributed to the success of these organizations in their efforts to combat hunger this holiday season: Harvest Hope Food Bank (SC), Lowcountry Food Bank (SC), and The Kind Mouse (FL).

“We love supporting organizations like these because of what they represent in our communities. They show genuine care for others and spread their generosity broadly, creating a wave of kindness impacting all that they touch,” Vong shared.

We’re all in this together and that is what the Grow Financial Foundation is about. By providing funds and volunteers we engage in our communities and come together to serve the greater good.

“Through efforts like our holiday food drive, we are making an impact and our team members have the opportunity to be a part of living and showcasing our mission of serving people, not profit,” Russell said.

Thank you to everyone who donated and helped us fight hunger this holiday season!
