The Shed at Stovehouse is reserved from 5:30pm-7:30pm. Everyone, including families, is invited to join us for live music and great company! Food and beverage will be available for purchase.
Saturday, May 14th
STOP #1
Start off your Saturday morning with a walk through #DowntownHSV in support of the @american_heart Association Heart Walk. Yulista`s Recruiting Team will be stationed at The Square to chat about our mission and open positions with #TeamYulista. #YulistaCARES team members will be walking the event, and we hope you`ll take a quick snap with the “Healthy Selfie” to promote the mission of AHA.
STOP #2
After the AHA Heart Walk, stop by the @TVC_AAAA Young Professionals Softball Tournament at Brahan Spring Park, sponsored by Yulista. Our teams will be playing for the champion title on Softball Fields #1 and #2. Come cheer for teams from Yulista, Dynetics, Avion Solutions, i3 and SAIC!

We encourage you to then visit the 2022 Relay for Life of N. Madison Co. This will be held at Hazel Green High School starting at 2:00 and ending at 7:00. Relay for Life is a community of like-minded survivors, caregivers, volunteers, and participants who believe that the future can be free from cancer. #TeamYulista member, Will Fowler, will be manning the grill and offering plates of pulled pork, smoked chicken and delicious sides... all homemade, nothing ever store bought! The plates will be cooked and sold at the event with all proceeds going to Relay For Life. Please come out and support this event while enjoying some great food.
We are grateful to have the opportunity to participate in supporting these organizations in the Huntsville area. We look forward to a busy weekend and hope to see you there!

With a turnout of approximately 200 attendees and 20 creative trunks, our first-ever #TeamYulista Trunk or Treat Spooktacular was a hit! The creativity of the trunks and costumes was next level. From tiny witches to superheroes, everyone dressed up to add to the festive vibe. The Best Kids` Costume Contest brought out the best of Halloween spirit, and the winners were the adorable Vanellope von Schweetz and her parents from Wreck It Ralph - - we hope you enjoy the golden pumpkin candy bucket! With so many uniquely decorated trunks, we knew the Best Trunk competition would be fierce. Attendees voted for their favorite trunk which resulted in a tie, so both winning trunks took home a $50 Café Us gift card! Congratulations to Duncan Brady with his McColdFront Deli & the MIM Team`s Spooky Trunk, led by Ceceila Rice!
Thank you to our volunteer team of grillers, food preppers, and setup/clean-up crews! A special shout out goes to the #YulistaCARES Officers as they worked incredibly hard to plan this event as a thank you for our Huntsville team members. Thank you for making this Spooktacular event so memorable! 🧡
Day 4 in Alaska - This day was big. 9 people traveled on a little puddle jumper from Bethel to Hooper Bay and Chevak to visit almost 900 students. At Hooper Bay, we met with roughly 475 students from K-12. We spent over 4.5 hours chatting to kids about resources and opportunities to help make their dreams come true.
Then we travels to Chevak. Due to weather and extra time spent at Hooper Bay, we had to change our strategy for Chevak. We landed 30 mins before school got out and had to pass out the supplies as the students were leaving. While the circumstances were out of our control, it was great to see some smiling faces and get big hugs.
Something that is common between these two villages, education is the center focus. Driving through the street is a stark contrast to the bright colors and constant positivity that floods the hallways of the schools. Teachers are invested in their students and staff work hard to use their resources to help paint bright futures for these kids.
We returned back to Bethel to catch our flight back to Anchorage where we are wrapping up our trip. Thank you to everyone who donated their time, money and voice to help make this Backpack Campaign a huge success. #yulistaCARES #giveback #outreach #alaska #travel #explore #gooutside #volunteer #nonprofit
#YulistaCARES showed up and glowed up for the @DRMHuntsville Glow Run 5k on March 2nd! Our Glow Run team was one of the largest at the event, over 25 strong full of CARES members and their families. In addition to being a Glow Runner event sponsor, the CARES team also raised $125. Some walked, some ran, but overall it was a fun night or everyone to come together to support the Downtown Rescue Mission goal to help those in need overcome hunger, homelessness, addiction, and abuse.
Since 2014, Yulista has provided school supplies and backpacks to the Calista Region in Alaska and to Madison County here in Alabama. Our goal this year was to provide 1000 backpacks; we met our goal of donating 500 to Alaska and 500 to schools and agencies in Madison County. One of those local agencies was the National Children’s Advocacy Center. We were excited to deliver the backpacks and hope that this small donation will make a difference for the children in our communities. ⠀

#YulistaCARES Jacksonville, FL team members volunteered at the @feedingnefl organization, supporting their mission to solve hunger in Northeast Florida. The team sorted and inspected 3,821lbs of donated food, which will provide 3,184 meals for our neighbors in need. Additionally, the team packaged 107 boxes in support of 214 Door Dash meals. We love seeing our YulistaCARES program grow within our communities. #TeamYulista #YulistaTechServices
We are committed to serving our neighbors, partners, and Alaska Shareholders. This month, five of our team members traveled to Kasigluk, Atmautluak, Oscarville, and Napakiak in the Lower Kuskokwim area, hand-delivering backpacks to five schools in the district. Many of these villages face challenges in accessing the tools needed for their education. Together, we`re making a difference—one backpack at a time! #YCBC24 #TeamYulista #YulistaCARES #ANC
