Giving Tuesday: Viva Loves Taking Care of Texas

Viva Day Spa + Med Spa is incredibly proud to call Austin, Round Rock, and Dallas Texas home. Our founders Shannon, Laurie and Maya bootstrapped their concept for a day spa with the belief that taking care of ourselves and others is fundamental to a happy, healthy life. As a locally-owned business, we love taking care of the guests who trust us with their care. We’re also committed to giving back to the extraordinary communities that have given Viva so much.

Viva has been supporting local causes (big and small) since 2005. And this year was no different. We’re delighted to have contributed to almost 100 Texas organizations in 2025. On Giving Tuesday, we’re shining a light on some of these exceptionally deserving non-profits, in case you have the ability to donate as well.
