Transforming Lives • Strengthening Community

Philanthropic Programs

Operation School Bell®

Members of Assistance League purchase, fit and distribute new clothing, hygiene kits and books to school children in need referred by area school counselors. Elementary students, grades K – 5, visit our store in Homewood. Middle School students, grades 6-8, visit local clothing stores and with the help of their “personal shoppers”, select new clothing, including socks and underwear. Their smiles as they leave are as big as the bags they are carrying!

PrimeTime Treasures

PrimeTime Treasures is a unique gift shop in the heart of Homewood, Alabama; known for its beautiful, hand-crafted furniture, baby items, art and much more. Located on the corner of 18thStreet and Oxmoor Road, PrimeTime Treasures sells products handmade exclusively by senior citizens of Alabama.

Operation Literacy

Operation Literacy’s goal is to encourage and assist children as they embark on the path of reading. Members assist the English Learner teacher at Shades Cahaba Elementary School with numerous projects as requested. The Book Nook at the Shops of Assistance League provides donated books to customers as an inexpensive avenue to acquire valuable reading material.
