About
Our Vision
To inform and inspire the civic and moral responsibility of Alabamians to create a state in which no individual’s quality of life is diminished by poverty.
Our Mission
To provide leadership in poverty education that results in the elimination of poverty.
History
Alabama Possible is brought to you from the Alabama Poverty Project. In 1993, a group of concerned citizens, including then-Auburn University President Wilford Bailey, Auburn History Professor Emeritus Wayne Flynt, Social Work Pioneer Eulene Hawkins and Alabama Baptist Convention President Earl Potts, decided to take action against poverty in Alabama and formed the Alabama Poverty Project. APP launched Alabama Possible during the summer of 2009 to emphasize the power each and every Alabamian has to end poverty in our home state.
APP is a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation.
Services
Alabama Possible and the Alabama Poverty Project educate and equip Alabamians to eradicate poverty through strategic partnerships with higher education institutions and faith-based organizations. Our supporters are committed to leveraging their collective assets to develop creative solutions to eradicate poverty.
We provide a wide range of services, including professional development opportunities, on-site presentations, and information services in response to requests from our members and their community partners.
