Alabama Project SHARE stories: Loretta Scott By Carla Davis July 13, 2021 Loretta Scott once gave to Project SHARE never thinking she would benefit from the program someday. (Alabama NewsCenter) When circumstances in life become overwhelming, you have to take the “p” off of pride and find somebody to help you ride and rise above them. That’s the view of Loretta Scott, who has turned to Project SHARE when life’s crises made paying her energy bills almost impossible. Over the years, Scott, 70, has survived ovarian cancer, a stroke and three tornadoes. The twisters in 2011 and 2015 destroyed her Birmingham-area homes and laid additional financial burdens on her shoulders. But Project SHARE became a true “lifeline” when she needed electricity to keep her son alive.
