The Healer

RUSTY CURINGTON
ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF PHARMACY

Society of St. Vincent de Paul

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul helps people in
need with every aspect of life — social services,
housing assistance, healthy eating, personal items. In
Cincinnati, those services include a charitable pharmacy
that provided 66,223 medications for free to people in
need — one of only about 150 such pharmacies in the
country. “It’s a huge need,” says Rusty Curington,
assistant director of the pharmacy. “Everyone seems
to know about free clinics, but the prescriptions aren’t
any good if you can’t afford the drugs.” He’s provided
services from filling prescriptions during a Medicaid
lapse to replacing asthma medication after a fire.

The Nurturer

SHUNDRIA MACK, W.E. PUTNAM MIDDLE SCHOOL
INSTRUCTOR

Jones Valley Teaching Farm

“Dirt was never in my plans” when she was young, says
Shundria Mack, an instructor at Jones Valley Teaching
Farm. But an internship with the farm during her junior
year of high school changed those plans. Now a junior
in college, she teaches children lessons that merge
academic subjects with farming and food. “Birmingham
is a food desert, which makes it a perfect place for a
teaching farm,” she says. “We plan lessons based on
what the kids are learning in school. And even the small
kids can take leadership of the farming spaces. Sometimes,
they may not realize they’re cultivating leadership while
they’re growing food.”

The community around us, seeingthe farm flourish, has been excited. Because this
isn’ t just aboutJonesValley-this is about the neighborhoods. It’s theirs.

The Shepherd

REV. ARTHUR PRICE, PASTOR

16th Street Baptist Church

“16th Street Baptist Church is a place of education and
of spiritual formation,” says Pastor Arthur Price. The
church is many things — a place of worship, a center for
social activity in the black community going back more
than a century. And it’s a historical landmark, as the site
of a bombing in 1963 that killed four young girls and
galvanized the Civil Rights Movement. “We don’t want to
just be known for the tragic events,” Price says. “But 16th
Street Baptist Church isn’t just a church — it’s an iconic
symbol of freedom, justice and equality.”

The Champion

SHAE REED, CHILD ADVOCATE

Alabama CASA Network

Two decades ago, Shae Reed read A Child Called It and
knew she wanted to become a champion for children. In
2016, she was able to make it happen, volunteering with
Alabama CASA Network as a Court Appointed Special
Advocate (CASA). She works with children in state
custody to support them and champion their best
interests — which could mean the child returns to their
family or moves to a safer, more nurturing home.
“Through CASA, I can focus on one child,” Reed says.
“Sometimes, I can just let them know that the abuse isn’t
their fault and give them the love they’re usually
craving.” And when their world is turning upside down,
she can be their place of stability, comfort, and hope.

Protective Life Foundation

Protective remains committed to supporting our customers, our employees and our communities. As we
navigate the unprecedented challenges posed by COVID-19, we are as resolute as ever.

Serving people is not just one of Protective’s values; it is deeply embedded in our corporate DNA. The
Protective Life Foundation is dedicated to improving the quality of life for our local communities and to
collaborating with others to create the greatest possible impact. In times like these, the Foundation does
just that.

The Foundation has partnered with local nonprofits and business leaders to understand where we can
best serve the broader community. It is an honor and privilege to support incredible organizations and
initiatives working tirelessly on meeting the immediate, mid- and long-term community needs created
by COVID-19.

To help support overall well-being and slow the spread of the virus, many of our employees shifted to
working remotely and, in addition to our normal paid-time-o benefits, we have implemented a new
COVID-19 Paid Leave Policy to provide flexibility to our employees during this period of uncertainty.

With a solid financial foundation and a demonstrated ability to overcome challenges over our 113-year
history, Protective is well-positioned to continue delivering on our promises. We are dedicated to
contributing to the relief and recovery of our communities — whatever the call may be.

As we continue to monitor this rapidly evolving situation, we urge everyone — our customers, our
employees and the entire Protective family — to please continue taking steps to keep yourself and your
loved ones healthy.

With gratitude,
