Hope Community aims to turn 10 acre property and historical school site into modern, inclusive earning environment.
The 10-plus acre piece of property south of Fairhope doesn’t just have potential. It’s already played a key role in the history of Baldwin County. To understand its significance, it’s important to understand the person who made it all possible. Anna T. Jeanes was born in Philadelphia in the early 1800s and by the time of her death in 1907, the Quaker philanthropist had dedicated much of her money and effort into establishing southern schools for African American children.
The University of South Alabama Health System’s Medical Center is committed to the overall health and well-being of the Gulf Coast. In addition to offering the finest in disease care through the broad range of hospital and outpatient settings, they recognize the large impact lifestyle choices play in health and disease.
Small lifestyle changes can have big impacts on most of the major causes of illness and death in our community. USA Health’s integrative medicine approach helps impact those changes through research, teaching and delivery of this information to the community at large.

“This is a great, positive story of blacks and whites working together for the education because we know that anybody within the community, that we can help those that are underserved, it only lifts all boats, so she got that, and we’re really recreating that passion and energy around, hey, let’s make sure we’re taking care of everybody.” – Hope Community President Shawn Graham
