Brook Hills City Ministries and New Rising Star Missionary Baptist Church are partnering with the Birmingham Housing Authority and Mission Alabama to help deliver food into the hands of families disproportionately affected by COVID-19.

We are looking for 24 volunteers each Saturday, beginning October 3, 2020 through October 31, 2020, to help distribute boxes of fresh fruits, vegetables, and now meat, at two different sites. All volunteers will meet at Oak Tree Ministries (6517 Kimberly Avenue; Birmingham, AL 35212) at 9:00 am each Saturday morning and will be assigned a site in the area to serve from there. There will be one site in Marks Village and one in Harris Homes. We plan to provide boxes from 9:30 until 11:30, meaning all volunteers should be free before lunch.

All volunteers must be able to lift 30+ pounds, be willing to pray, and wear PPE. If you do not have PPE, we will have masks available. If you have a BH Loves BHM shirt, please wear it. (We will have some extras on site of those too.)

Thank you so much for your willingness to serve during this time of uncertainty. We appreciate you being willing to share the love of God even when it's scary to do so.
