Business Celebrates 20 Years with $20K Donations to Regional Charities

ALBANY — Vibrant Brands, a branding and marketing agency in the Capital Region, is celebrating 20 years in business by giving back to the community it calls home. The company announced it will be donating a portion of $20,000 to different organizations throughout the year.

“We started our business in 2002 and then moved to Latham from Oneonta in 2019,” said Christopher Quereau, president and creative director of Vibrant Brands. “We learned firsthand the impact that local nonprofits have within this area and that is why investing in our community is important.”

Vibrant Brands is kickstarting the giving campaign by donating $1,000 to an organization needing extensive support due to the current events in Ukraine. The World Central Kitchen currently serves millions of fresh meals to Ukrainian families fleeing their homes or staying in place as Russia invades the country.

Charities receiving funds include: American Foundation for Suicide Prevention Capital Region New York, Mohawk Hudson Humane Society, SPCA of Upstate NY, In Our Own Voices, Pride Center of the Capital Region, Mission Accomplished Transition Services, RISSE (Refugee & Immigrant Support Services of Emmanus, Inc.), Regional Food Bank of Northeastern NY, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Upstate NY/Vermont Chapter, YWCA NENY, To Life, Sidewalk Warriors, Alzheimer’s Disease Association, Things of My Very Own, Autism Society of the Capital Region, Habitat For Humanity Capital District, Albany Damien Center, African American Cultural Center of the Capital Region, NAACP New York State, Girls Incorporated of the Greater Capital Region, The Women’s Fund of the Capital Region.

Vibrant Brands delivers digital marketing, design, website development, video and branding services to nonprofits, businesses and government agencies across the Northeast and beyond. Though they have worked with clients in a diverse range of industries over the years, the team is inspired by the organizations that work tirelessly to support those in need.
