Let me tell you my story
Coach Mal Moore spent nearly 50 years of his life in service to the University of Alabama. In Crimson Heart, Moore finally opens up and expresses his feelings on many important events that shaped both his life and the Alabama Athletic department as we know it today. On March 30, 2013, only a few days after he retired, the University lost a coach, an athletic director, and one of the best ambassadors the school has ever known. Coach Moore gave his life to the betterment of his beloved Crimson Tide, and to the people of Alabama. Fittingly, even in death, he is still giving back in a championship manner.
Money Donated so far: $41,500
Caring days

The foundation has already donated $10,000 to Caring Days, an adult day care center in Tuscaloosa that helps individuals afflicted with Alzheimer’s Disease and other forms of dementia.
