On today’s episode of Building Birmingham Together we’re talking with Madison Kerns Conrad. Madison is Director of Operations for Urban Avenues, a Birmingham nonprofit designed to unite disconnected communities by inspiring people to be curious and make beautiful things together. In 2020, Madison led Urban Avenues’ CareHealth initiative — a response to the COVID crisis. The initiative served two communities that were greatly impacted by COVID: healthcare workers and local restaurants. Raising over $80,000 from the community, Madison and the CareHealth team were able to pour those funds into the restaurant community and serve over 8,000 meals to healthcare teams. Talk about Building Birmingham Together!
