Community Partnerships:
Police Departments
Ethan developed a partnership with the Birmingham and Homewood Police Departments which places care packages in the officer's patrol cars. Officers are now able to assist Ethan's Heart to get the supplies directly in the hands of those in need. A number of the care packages are delivered during the wee hours of the morning and to areas where many may not go due to safety concerns.
Academy Sports and Outdoor
Ethan's Heart initially partnered with Academy Sports and Outdoor in 2019. Their generous donations have provided sleeping bags and much needed survival supplies to support Ethan's Heart mission to support those experiencing homelessness.

Grace Klein Community seeks to create authentic community (Koinonia) by uniting diverse individuals, businesses, ministries, and churches to work together by sharing what they have in order to meet physical and spiritual needs both locally and globally. Ethan's Heart initially partnered with Grace Klein Community/FeedBHM during The World Games 2022 in Birmingham, AL. The partnership grew and we look forward to years of community work together.
Go-Kot
Outdoor & Sporting Goods Company
Ashville, Alabama
The amazing owners of Go-Kot are veterans and proudly make all of their Kots in the United States (Alabama). They met Ethan and believed in his mission. Since that time they have donated Kots to ensure individuals who normally sleep on the ground have a better supported nights sleep. In 2021, the owners specially designed the Jesus Loves Me Kot for Ethan's Heart to remind those who received them that there was indeed hope. Ethan hand delivers each Kot and provides training on the proper assembly, use, and storage of the Kot.
