Spectrum Cares
Spectrum Cares is committed to reaching further into our communities to help those in need, elevate positivity, and enhance programs dedicated to serving the people in our neighborhoods.
From helping at-risk youth to raising money and awareness for cancer research, from building homes for the homeless to securing safer futures for victims of domestic violence, we are passionate about supporting initiatives that change lives.
Each year, we bring our entire team together for a day of giving, team building, and celebrating! Over 100 team members, spouses, and significant others gathered in Charlotte and devoted 300+ hours to helping causes including The Relatives, Baby Bundles, and Second Harvest Food Bank. These hours together are some of the most memorable and meaningful time we spend as a company.
Community Service
We have a unique opportunity to truly impact our communities beyond the special places we create for our clients.
Habitat for Humanity’s vision is of a world where everyone has a decent place to live. Spectrum has partnered with Habitat over the years to help those in need of acquiring an affordable house they can call home.
Since partnering with Habitat for Humanity, Spectrum has built one complete home and assisted with building multiple other houses for families in the Charlotte area.
The Relatives’ mission is to keep kids safe, families together, and prepare youth and young adults to be healthy, productive, engaged members of the community.
Serving Mecklenburg County and the surrounding areas, The Relatives provide a system of resources that helps children and youth find shelter and support. The Relatives Crisis Center, the On Ramp Resource Center, and Journey Place Transitional Residence keep kids safe and families together.
Classroom Central fosters equity in education by providing teachers and students with the free resources they need to succeed. Classroom Central allows teachers to shop and receive $1,200+ worth of free materials including essential school supplies, cleaning supplies, personal care items, STEM and literacy materials, lesson plans, books and much more.
Toys for Tots mission is to collect new unwrapped toys and distribute those toys to less fortunate children at Christmas. Their goal is to help bring the joy of Christmas by through the gift of a new toy and send a message of hope to America’s less fortunate children.
In 2009, our Raleigh team began partnering with The Salvation Army to support Project Angel Tree, a program focused on providing new clothing and toys to children in need during the Christmas season.
With the help of our generous tenants, we have provided gifts and much-needed shoes, coats, and clothing for over 2,550 children.
Dedicated to ending the cycle of domestic and sexual violence in Wake County, North Carolina, InterAct saves lives, rebuilds lives, and secures safer futures for victims and survivors and their families.
Spectrum has contributed time, labor and materials to help InterAct maintain their Emergency Shelter, a vital community resource for victims of domestic violence.
The Men’s Shelter of Charlotte operates Mecklenburg County’s only two year-round emergency shelters for men experiencing homelessness. They also provide an array of support services, including housing and employment aide, substance abuse and mental health counseling, peer support, medical respite, and dental services.
Spectrum coordinated the renovation of the men’s shelter in 2005 and their administrative office in 2018. Along with our partners, we were able to provide 220 men a safe place to sleep, shower, and receive services.
Holly Springs Food Cupboard’s mission is to provide supplemental food and referral assistance to those in need in the Holly Springs community.
