The Pine Hill Mission Food Bank and Outreach project is about providing nutritious food to senior citizens and needy families. We also provide help to those that have a loss from natural disasters (house fires, storms etc.). Our project is able to help at all times. We can provide food (weeks supply in case of emergency), clothing, shoes and personal need items. We offer workshops on healthy eating and free gym and aerobics class to the public.

Wilcox Area Chamber of Commerce Student Ambassador Scholarship (Revised)
As revised, this project is intended to enhance the WACC Chamber Ambassador Program by providing technology upgrades, training supplies, shirts and nametags. These items will help build a stronger leadership program, create digital training and program content, enhance the guest speaker experience, and provide a more professional and uniform appearance for Ambassadors at Chamber events. The Program was created to help prepare students in Wilcox County by teaching the inner workings of local economy and government, teaching valuable skills, and teaching the importance of contributing to our diverse and rural county in Alabama.
