He feeds roughly 500 people twice a month, and feeds about 1,000 people each Thanksgiving and Christmas. When asked what the opportunity to partner with the Seahawks means to him, Charles replied:

And that's what we do, we feed anyone," Vance said. Vance makes it a mission to support those in need. "The goal is to bring them to a place that they remember when they were younger. It's a place of comfort."

"The opportunity to partner with the Seahawks, it's a dream come true," Vance said. "I have been a season ticket holder since 1998-99… I feel that the Seahawks organization is as good as it can get in the NFL as how they've run the business of football is from a place of respect in the community….provide an environment for people to work in that is world class.
