My name is Mason Klick, and I’m one of the founders of Vibe and Rise Again.

My story starts with my family. Growing up, my mom struggled with addiction for many years. There were times when life was really hard. I had to grow up fast, help raise my siblings, and learn what it meant to carry responsibility at a young age.

My mom’s story didn’t end there.
She fought her way back. Through faith, recovery, and determination, she rebuilt her life. Today she spends her time helping people who are struggling with the same things she once faced — people coming out of prison, people experiencing homelessness, people trying to break free from addiction. She understands them because she’s lived it.

Watching her rise again showed me something powerful: people are never just their worst moment.
A few years ago I started collecting donations in our community — blankets, hygiene supplies, clothing — just trying to help people who were struggling. At first it was small, but when I tried again in 2025, something amazing happened. Donations poured in, and it became clear this was bigger than just handing out supplies.

Around that same time I met Sam, a musician and mentor who has spent years helping artists find their voice. He saw something in me and encouraged me to use my voice too — not just through music, but through building something that could help people.

Together, along with other creatives and supporters in our community, we created Vibe and Rise Again.
Our goal is simple: create a space where people can come without judgment. A place where someone can get the resources they need — whether that’s clothing, food, or help finding a job — but also a place where artists and creatives can share their talents and their stories.

When people see someone who has struggled just like them… and risen again… it gives them hope that they can rise again too.
