A campaign to feed front-line health care workers caring for COVID-19 patients is once again in action at UAB. It is a partnership between UAB Advancement and the UAB Department of Food and Nutrition Services, with donations from the community.
The campaign’s first phase, which launched April 1, 2020, raised more than $76,000 and served more than 16,000 meals purchased from those donations in just over four weeks; following the campaign pause, the remaining $21,000 gift balance was used to serve nearly 4,000 additional meals in the following months. Since April, Meals for Heroes has served more than 22,000 meals.
