Thank you so much for your amazingly generous donation to our Book Fairy program. Because of your generosity, 33 children were able to shop their local book fairs to grow their home libraries, practice consumer skills, and experience a sense of equity with their peers. The students are so excited to be gifted with Book Fairy magic, and we appreciate your support in treating impoverished children to the memorable extras that make learning fun.
Kate O'Neal President, The Caring Link
Your partnership this spring has been such a blessing. Thank you for collecting all those stuffed Easter Eggs and for the funds collected in the cafe via your round up program. We are honored to be a CARES partner and look forward to continued opportunities to work together to support families caring for vulnerable children!
Kimberly DuVall Founder, North Alabama Foster Closet

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! 🧡

This is one of my favorite photos from yesterday. Silly faces and big smiles. 8 employees from yulistaholdingllc and calistacorp traveled to Hooper Bay and Chevak to pass out school supplies and love on almost 900 amazing kiddos in the villages. There will be more from the trip coming soon, but I can’t begin to explain how full my heart is. The #yulistacares 2022 Backpack Campaign has been a huge success! Thankful for all who helped to knock it out of the park… #giveback #travel #adventure #explore #outreach #hooperbay #chevak #alaska

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 #NCAC

In a wonderful display of teamwork, team members from Lexington, KY, and Huntsville, Alabama, joined forces to donate 8,860 candy-filled plastic Easter eggs to local foster organizations. Most donated eggs already filled with candy, but some team members even coordinated stuffing parties to do it together! These eggs were graciously donated to support two significant organizations: @bairfoundation in Lexington and the North Alabama Foster Closet in Huntsville. We hope this donation drive provided immense joy to foster children and families and added festive cheer to Easter celebrations in these communities. #YulistaCARES #fosteringconnections
