The Long-Lewis Foundation is dedicated to sharing the love of Christ throughout the communities we serve by supporting evangelistic causes and providing aid to those experiencing medical or emotional needs.

Loving Every person should experience the Love of Christ — regardless of age, race, denomination or social status. Sharing Everyone should hear the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Giving All giving is meant to Glorify God and help others experience the love of Jesus Christ.

Caring The best way for people to see Christ in us is to show that we care. “Why” we give is to Glorify God and to help others experience the Love of Jesus Christ. “What” we give to is faith-based initiatives within our community and those who have a need due to unforeseen circumstances.

A few words from the churches, ministries and neighbors we've been able to walk alongside. Scroll sideways for more letters Thank you so much for your continued generosity and partnership with Hands of Hope International. We are truly grateful for your ongoing support and belief in the mission God has entrusted to us.

Because of your financial support, we are able to continue our biblical education programs, expand community outreach, and invest in long-term impact across multiple villages and communities in Guatemala. Your partnership helps us show up consistently—building relationships, encouraging local leaders, and sharing the hope of Jesus with children and families in meaningful and lasting ways.

We see the impact of your support every day in the lives being changed, and we could not do this work without partners like you walking alongside us. Your generosity is making a real difference, and we are deeply thankful. Thank you again for being part of this mission with us.

We are honored by your trust and look forward to continuing this work together. Erik Hunt Director, Hands of Hope International To The Long-Lewis Foundation, I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for your unwavering support of The Rescue Me Project. Your generous contributions have been instrumental in empowering us to make a meaningful difference in the lives of the youth in our community and beyond.

Thanks to your support, we have been able to provide essential resources, mentorship programs, and educational opportunities to young individuals who may have otherwise been overlooked or underserved. Your dedication to our cause has not only helped us reach our goals but has also inspired us to dream bigger and aim higher in our mission to create positive change.

The impact of your generosity extends far beyond the tangible resources you provide. Your belief in our vision has given us the confidence to persevere through challenges and continue pushing forward, knowing that we have partners like you standing beside us every step of the way. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your ongoing support, encouragement, and commitment to making the world a better place for our youth.

Together, we are truly making a difference. With heartfelt gratitude, Dewayne Malone Founder/President at The Rescue Me Project Long-Lewis Foundation has been a God send as we Blaze the Trail for Jesus!

From helping us do community outreach with our Horses to traveling to Pine Ridge Indian Reservation to do Horse and Bible Camps every year and traveling to Navajo Nation to distribute much needed water containers to help alleviate suffering from lack of water, your timely response doesn’t go unnoticed.

The youth of Pine Ridge Indian Reservation always tell us that we are different because we come back every year as most ministry teams do not sadly. Reservation missions aren’t for the faint of heart. Thanks again Long-Lewis Foundation!

Keith Green Executive Director, Life Brand Cowboy Church Thanks so much to Long-Lewis Foundation for helping my daughter, Alexis, with her recovery from a brain injury. The assistance from the Foundation has provided help with her treatments & the 23 day stay out of town. We are so grateful for the help & Blessed by this Foundation with their assistance.

Jennifer Edington Sheffield, Alabama In preparing to write this, I read several testimonials that have been submitted by other recipients of your foundation’s generosity. What an honor it is for Global Missions of Mercy to continually be included in your mission to carry the gospel “to the uttermost parts of the earth”!

Because of LLF’s faithful sponsorship, GMM’s annual golf tournament continues to grow and provide much needed revenue to support the ministry in the beautiful mountain villages of Chiquimula Guatemala. 20 years ago the indigenous families in those mountains were literally starving……for food, for the True and Living God, and for hope for the future.

Today, their bodies, minds, and spirits are all being fed; and the results are amazing! Thank you, Long-Lewis Foundation, for your faithfulness in carrying out the Great Commission! Debra Simmons Secretary, Global Missions of Mercy My daughter participated in the JUMP Mentoring Program sponsored in part through your organization.

Before her involvement she had trouble expressing herself as well as not being confident in new situations. Through both group and individual counseling as well as one on one contact with her mentor she gained much needed life coping skills. I saw her blossom into a young woman ready for the next chapter in life; to which I attribute much of that to the JUMP program!

Thank you for investing in the children in our community!! Glenna Haddock Muscle Shoals, AL I live in Courtview Towers. When I got home from work yesterday, I found a basket with some canned goods and dry goods and a ham.

A note in the basket told me that my thanks belong to The Long-Lewis Foundation. I am very thankful. I feel blessed to live in an area where low-income households are remembered.

At the Colbert County Sheriff’s FAME Girls’ Ranch we care for 15 beautiful girls who cannot live with their families because of the choices of the adults in their lives. The girls in our care represent 7 counties across North Alabama and range in age from 12 to 18. Our location was the family home of Rick and Linda Hall of FAME Recording Studios for 33 years.

We are very fortunate to have such a peaceful setting for our girls who have been through so much adversity. Our girls are typical teenagers who have jobs, play sports, and are involved in extracurricular activities at school. Until recently we had four girls with a learners permit and no car to teach them to drive in.

Due to the generosity of the Long-Lewis Foundation, we now have a wonderful Ford Focus for the girls to drive and learn to drive. The staff at FAME would like to express a very heartfelt thanks to the Long-Lewis Family for helping us be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ to our girls. I wish you could have seen their happy faces when they saw the car for the first time.

We only have one more very important request- PRAYER – as we teach 4 teenage girls to drive! Cindy Hall Director of Ranch Life, Colbert County Sheriff’s FAME Girls’ Ranch We are so thankful for the investment that the Long-Lewis Foundation is making in protecting, nurturing and restoring children and families through Christ centered services.

Alabama Baptist Children’s Homes & Family Ministries has been helping kids from hard places have a normal childhood for over 120 years. Originally this was through residential care, but in recent years, also through Pathways Counseling, Family Care, and Foster Care. This year an estimated 6,400 children will spend time in Alabama’s foster care system.

We are honored to have the Long-Lewis Foundation participate in shining the light of Christ in the lives of these wonderful children. Alabama Baptist Children’s Homes & Family Ministries provides foster care for children in the Shoals and across Alabama. This gives us the ability to serve those in our care in a very holistic and complete manner.

Serving children in foster care can be a very challenging endeavor. That is why we go the extra mile for the families in our Care. We could not do this without the support of people and organizations like the Long-Lewis Foundation!

Terry Gallagher Major Gifts, Alabama Baptist Children’s Homes & Family Ministries I am pleased to write a letter of testimonial for the Long-Lewis Foundation. Our organization was so blessed to be the recipient of a Long-Lewis fundraising event. The Long-Lewis employees were wonderful to work with.

They answered all of our questions and had many workers there to help on the day of the event. During the event, I got the feeling that the employees really wanted the fundraiser to go well for us, and they did everything possible to make it a fun and eventful day. The event was very easy for our organization to pull together, and we were very pleased with the results.

Long-Lewis even went above and beyond our expectations by matching the amount of money we raised on the day of the event. Long-Lewis has also sponsored our agency for other fundraising events we have held and even encouraged their employees to get involved. I can truly say that Long-Lewis really cares about their community and making it a better place for all.

Just setting the example for their employees and encouraging them to support charitable causes says so much. Thank you Long-Lewis for all you do in giving and loving the Shoals Area. Gina D.

Mashburn CEO, Big Brothers Big Sisters What a blessing the Long-Lewis Foundation has been to the Prattville YMCA. Over the last few years the foundation has supported our Coach a Child Scholarship Fund. This fund provides scholarship dollars to children and families who would be unable to use the services of the Y due to financial hardship.

So far in 2018 we have been able to help over 2500 different individuals. The Long-Lewis Foundation is playing a big part in the lives of these people. Jesus said, “A new command I give you: Love one another.

As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another. ” It is obvious that the folks of the Long-Lewis Foundation are disciples.

It is demonstrated by their love and generosity. The Prattville YMCA is thankful to be a recipient of that love. Keith Cantrell Assistant General Director/Development, Prattville YMCA I started working with the American Cancer Society shortly after losing the third member of my family to that dreaded disease.

The funding of cancer research provided by ACS as well as assisting families to cope during treatment are so important to everyone and must be continued and expanded to combat cancer and meet the needs of the patients. We can help accomplish this with funds we raise to meet the demand.

Our fundraiser this year was a Cancer Ball and we thank you Long-Lewis Foundation for your contribution/sponsorship to our Cancer Ball “Boots & Bling”. It was a wonderful event and you helped us exceed our goal. Your application process and response time is very efficient.

Thank you for all that you do to help our community meet the needs of our friends and neighbors. It was a pleasure to work with the Long-Lewis Foundation. Pat Burney American Cancer Society Committee In the past 86 years as The Salvation Army has served in the Shoals with “Heart to God and hand to man”.

We have been blessed to have friends within the community who come along side of us to meet human need. In this effort meet human need without discrimination, one such friend has been the Long-Lewis Foundation. The concerned individuals of Long-Lewis have helped to: Send children to summer camp.

Provide homeless men the opportunity to participate in spiritual retreats. Provide toys and clothes for children for Christmas. Assisted in expanding and enhancing the Emergency Shelter (for men, women and families).

Encourage spiritual development in the lives of all those who seek material assistance. We are very grateful for the commitment and clarity of the Foundation to the Shoals community, and we pray that the efforts of the Foundation will bring glory to God and meet human need. Thank you for your concern and support.
