Carver Jones Market
billy
Clerestory exists to provide rehabilitative and developmental opportunities for folks moving out of crisis (addiction, poverty, abuse, etc) in the form of vocational, educational, residential, and community-building initiatives.
This campaign will specifically support our Carver Jones Market initiative in Fairfield, Alabama.
Fairfield, Alabama, located next to the city of Birmingham, Alabama, is a “food desert” in that there are no grocery or other retail establishments in the entire city selling fresh meat and/or produce. Carver Jones will address a huge need in the community for fresh, quality food, as well as the need for life and vitality in the middle of downtown Fairfield. The store will also provide jobs to local high school students and will provide critical job training and development.
Construction is underway and approximately half of the funds needed have been raised!
"Not merely to exist, but to really live. That’s the goal at CARVER JONES. We are here — in this place and at this time — to experience and provide more than the things we sell. This is about seeing individuals and families thrive. It’s about watching communities come together around the potential of what progress can bring..."
Eat good. Live well. Be better.
