The women of Heart of Alabama Food Bank are making an impact by leading with love and compassion as they help the organization provide food for the hungry and food insecure.
- WE ARE EXCITED ABOUT the announcement of our new name: Heart of Alabama Food Bank. We chose this name for three reasons: to better explain our coverage area (35 counties in the heart of the state, 12 of which are directly served out of our facility in Montgomery); to make ourselves more welcoming and inclusive; and to convey the love and compassion that we have for those who deal with hunger and/or are food insecure.
- WE’VE LEARNED THE HARD WAY THAT to effectively fight the fundamental needs in our communities, we all must work together and share our expertise, talents and resources. Saving lives is a team sport, not a competitive one.
- WE ARE PROUD OF our “outside of the box” vision that allows us to find creative ways to better serve families, children, seniors and veterans.
- OUR CLIENTS DO BUSINESS WITH US because of our integrity and willingness to do all that we can to help them serve the hungry and food insecure in their communities.
- YOU WOULD NEVER GUESS how extensive and how multifaceted the food bank operation truly is. A lot of strategic thinking, logistics and creativity goes into making the Heart of Alabama Food Bank work like a well-oiled machine.
- WE VALUE people. Donors, volunteers, staff members, community leaders and clients are very important to us.
- OUR SECRET SAUCE IS our incredibly diverse, talented and caring team. From the drivers to the CEO, we have built the ultimate dream team.
- WE HOPE WOMEN WILL seek to know their value, particularly in the workplace. Realize that you have the power to make an impact wherever you are and in whatever you do, and that you have a voice that must be heard. Women are natural connectors, multitaskers and are highly resourceful.
