Story and Mission
Fuse Project is a local nonprofit dedicated to providing the spark for innovation , funding , and implementation of projects benefiting children along Alabama ’ s Gulf Coast . In partnership with The Historic Avenue Foundation , Fuse Project invests in initiatives promoting the health , fitness , education , and social responsibility of our children . Since its inception in 2012 , Fuse Project has raised over $ 4 million and has partnered with over 50 nonprofits and community organizations to bring together high-impact projects for children in Mobile and Baldwin counties . As we celebrate a decade of Fuse Project , we are committed to providing every child in our community with an opportunity for success .
In 2018 , Fuse Project narrowed the scope of its mission to one neighborhood with the launch of the community quarterback organization , The Historic Avenue Foundation . Together , Fuse Project and The Historic Avenue Foundation are making investments in mixed-income housing , cradle-to-college education , and community wellness to enact transformational change and close the opportunity gaps that exist in our community . From partnering with local organizations to launch a culinary club , gardening club , and art club , to offering water safety courses , summer programming , and mentoring , we are investing in the world ’ s most valuable resource and the future of our community .
