Your commitment makes all the difference

It takes roughly $1,000 a month to provide the basics of food, clothing, emotional, psychological and medical care, as well as academic and extracurricular activities. The members of the Big 12 Club do more than help provide essentials. They provide hope. They provide stability. They provide the strength we need to lead our children into adulthood.

For more information on Big 12 Club membership, contact Jessica Phillips at (205) 467-6226 or jphillips@bigoak.org.

“When I was 15 my family experienced a storm like no other. In one day, my world was turned upside down, and our household was torn apart. I am proud to say that I am a Big Oak Girl and am eternally grateful that I was given the chance that I so desperately needed.”
