Every day, thousands of children around Alabama and Tennessee face poverty and the result is a lack of appropriate, safe shoes. The Listerhill Foundation's current initiative, Kicks For Kids, exists to raise awareness of this problem and offer real, impactful solutions to those most in need.
We get excited about meeting our members out in the community. Listerhill provides financial support and is actively engages in dozens of community events across communities throughout northwest Alabama and south central Tennessee. So when you're out, you'll probably see us with our classic red tent and smiling faces. Stop by and say hello!
One of Listerhill’s goals is to support what is important to our members. Every year, Listerhill ask members and employees to participate in a charitable contribution survey which helps Listerhill choose the fundraising efforts members are passionate about. Two non-profits that always rise to the top of this list are American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life and St. Jude.
Listerhill and its employees have raised money for Relay for Life each year since 1995, raising nearly $100,000 over the last 10 years. In the Spring, branches sell t-shirts and wristbands to raise funds and awareness for this annual campaign.
Listerhill also supports St. Jude with an annual Fall fundraising campaign. In additional to this fundraiser, Listerhill donates $.50 to St. Jude for every deposit made into Good Start Savings account at no cost to you.
The Keystone Card is Listerhill's newest debit card that provides you an easy way to support UNA! For every purchase, Listerhill donates a portion of the amount you spend back to the University's students, alumni, athletics, and advancement programs.

We offer membership to people who live, work, worship, or attend school in northwest Alabama and south-central Tennessee. Community donations are available to nonprofits based within these areas.
We aim to support a wide range of non-profit organizations that are contributing to community development and enrichment in our focus areas. Your nonprofit may be eligible to receive a donation for things like improving schools, boosting economic development, helping underserved communities with food or clothing, or even providing affordable housing.
Requests must be submitted at least two weeks in advance of the time when you need the funds or prior to the event you are fundraising for.
