This year’s Connect Mobile class chose to support The Joseph Project, a food pantry supported by the Ashland Place UMC and housed inside the Dumas Wesley Community Center that provides essential resources to individuals and families across Mobile. The Joseph Project plays a vital role in addressing food insecurity in our community, offering nourishment, stability, and hope to our neighbors who need it most.
With a heart for service and a mission to make a measurable impact, our young professionals in Connect Mobile organized multiple community-wide and corporate food drives to help stock the pantry’s shelves. They visited the shelter, assessed needs, collaborated with multiple community organizations, created digital marketing materials, raised funds, and created volunteer check-in services for them as well. Their efforts helped bring attention to both the needs of the Project and the increasing number of citizens living with food insecurity, which, as we all know, was exacerbated during the government shutdown.
We are incredibly proud to share that the Class of 2025’s commitment to servant leadership resulted in a much-needed boost to the volunteer-led program. Their work stands as a powerful example of how young leaders can create lasting change when they combine collaboration, creativity, and compassion.
