The holiday season was a special time for the Telemus team. Dozens of team members from our Southfield and Chicago offices helped to furnish and decorate homes for two deserving families in partnership with Humble Design. The families, with eight children in all, were previously homeless. ‘Deco day’ took place in both Michigan and Illinois on the same day, including emotional reveals in both cities.
“We have said at Telemus that it’s important to enrich the lives of our clients, but at the same time it’s really important to embrace the community,” said Telemus CEO Lyle Wolberg as he helped he team pack a van full of items at the Humble Design warehouse in Pontiac.
“We forget that there are people who don’t have a dresser, don’t have a bed, a place to sit, a place to gather and eat like a dining room table. It’s amazing to give that and make sure another family has it,” added Erin Epstein, Senior Associate in our Family Office. “It’s incredible to think about all the wonderful memories they’re going to make together.”
The team hung pictures, vacuumed floors, cleaned and put away dishes, set tables, made beds, assembled a crib, and helped turn each house into a warm and welcoming home. There were priceless moments as both families arrived. Watch the video below to see what happened.
