Trilogy Agency’s VIBE Home Makeover Tampa Bay Initiative

Trilogy Agency, a Tampa, FL-based proprietary cause marketing firm who acts as the developer and manager of the VIBE Home Makeover series, announces the inaugural project will be produced in the Tampa Bay region in 2026-27. 

VIBE Home Makeovers provide designer home renovations to recipient families in need, at no cost to the homeowners.

In our first year, five families will receive home makeovers, with four recipients receiving the Select Editions, modest upgrades, with six or more major improvements and a selection of finishing touches.

One recipient will receive the Flagship Edition renovation, an extensive interior and exterior transformation with 18 or more major upgrades and an array of home décor finishing touches. 

The makeovers and renovations are completed following an exhaustive search by VIBE for the most deserving families in the bay area. Recipients will be selected based on their need for improved living conditions, past and current health challenges, and financial difficulties.

For all VIBE Home Makeovers, the families must reside in the home to be renovated.

Applicants for the Select Series can own or rent their home, and must live in Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Hernando, Polk, Manatee, or Sarasota county.

Applicants for the Flagship renovation must own their home, and live in the Tampa Bay Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) which includes Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, and Hernando counties.

The improvements are completed in the Spring of 2027, during multiple six-day windows for the Select Series, and during a 12-day window for the Flagship renovation.

Upgrades for all VIBE makeovers and renovations include: complete exterior painting, landscaping and gardening, and custom interior painting.

Depending on multiple factors, other upgrades may include new windows, solar technology, AC and heating, flooring, kitchen cabinets (refacing or replacement), countertops, bathroom upgrades, closets and storage, major appliances, electronics and computers, new furniture, mattresses and bedding. 

Other options may include lighting and ceiling fans, smart home technology, security system, window treatments, wood accent wall, small appliances, and water purification system.

Additional exterior options include veneer/siding, deck/pergola, gutters and protection, pavers, whole house generator, garage upgrade, outdoor furniture, therapeutic spa, outdoor shed, lawn care equipment, fencing, and storm shutters.

Modest home repairs may include roofing, electrical, plumbing, and special requests.

Finishing touches complete the designer makeovers and renovations and may include artwork, décor, mirrors, shelving, organization, lamps, clocks, vases, plants, rugs, linens, pillows, and homeowner’s treasures. 

The total community impact of all five makeovers is estimated to be in excess of $300,000, including design, building improvement products, professional installation, project and construction management, and community volunteerism.

Funding for all VIBE Home Makeovers is provided by our project partners, who contribute financial resources, home-related products with installation, and employee volunteer support.

In return, partners receive a plethora of tangible benefits as part of Trilogy’s ‘Proprietary Cause Marketing’ ROI-based platform.

These benefits include, but are not limited to, VIBE website and microsite, social media postings, blogs and vlogs, podcasts and vodcasts, annual magazine, VIBE project video and video-on-demand series, virtual home show, and multiple business development events.
