One of the best parts of life at YES is the YES We Care program, where team members get the chance to help others in our communities and the broader community as a whole. 

“The YES We Care program is an integral part of the YES Communities culture. We are vested in ensuring that our residents, our number one asset, are taken care of when they need it most,” said Steven Schaub, CEO of YES Communities.

This week, Grand Blanc Crossing, located in Grand Blanc, MI owned and operated by YES Communities, completed a 100% volunteer-led, Hug-A-Home renovation project for a long-term resident in the community.

“Thank you for all you guys did, you have truly changed my life,” said Mr. Williams, a disabled veteran and resident since 2010. Mr. Williams' home renovation was made possible by YES team members, including community managers, maintenance technicians and office team members. YES Communities provided the homeowner with a multitude of home improvements including paint, new window screens, a deck and much more.

As part of the Hug-A-Home program, local vendors and partners helped complete the project. The following local vendors came out to support and contribute to the Hug-A-Home; Turning Point Construction, T & F, Diamond Maintenance, Capital Supply and Service, AMHS, Dr. Drain Plumbing, Wash on Wheels and Franklin Landscaping.
