Yellowhammer Fund won its lawsuit against Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall. The court made it clear: Alabama’s laws do not extend beyond state lines to penalize people for getting or assisting with legal healthcare elsewhere.

As part of our commitment to Reproductive Justice, Yellowhammer Fund invests in the community-rooted organizations making birth, breastfeeding, and postpartum support accessible; especially for Black families across Alabama.

Our Next Subgrantee Spotlight is Be Kind Birmingham! ✨💜

Be Kind Birmingham is known for their mobile Free Store, which they have run out of a renovated school bus. They consistently show up at libraries throughout the city of Birmingham to supply people with resources they need.

Our next spotlight is TAKE Resource Center! 💜✨

TAKE has been uplifting the voices of our TGNC community members since 2012, and hasn't skipped a beat! By providing direct service, wellness retreats, mentorship, and much more, TAKE has become an irreplaceable staple in Alabama.

Yellowhammer Fund granted over $275K in October to organizations that keep the work moving around Alabama. We would be remiss if we didn't show you the organizations chosen, and the impact they have in the community! 

For our first spotlight, we have Margins: Women Helping Black Women! ✨💜

At Yellowhammer Fund, our work is shaped by the truth that Reproductive Justice is impossible without Trans liberation. Our communities cannot be free if Trans people are not free.

We would like to take a moment to extend our deepest and warmest appreciation to our Healthcare Access Director, Kelsea McLain. Her deep commitment to abortion seekers is inspiring and shapes the way we do this work.

🧵On Nov. 18th, South Carolina will hear S.B. 323. If passed, S.B. 323 will create a total abortion ban. This ban attacks our free speech, bodily autonomy, privacy, and ability to support our communities in making their own healthcare decisions.

Everybody take a moment to wish our amazing Family Justice Organizer, Shakeyla Sumlin, a Happy Birthday! Shakeyla joined our staff in 2022, but committed to serving our community far before that. We admire Shakeyla's endless dedication to ensuring everybody has the resources they need to thrive.

YHF is heading to the National Women's Studies Association's 45th annual conference. 

There, we will facilitate a panel on how the Bus Tour functioned both as a tool of data collection and a mobile site of refusal—centering narrative, memory, and resistance rooted in Black feminist traditions.

Philanthropy must evolve beyond extraction and control to relationships of accountability, abundance, and trust. Because care isn’t an inconvenience. It’s the strategy.
