Basic Needs Services

Basic Needs Services, located in Montevallo, AL, is dedicated to providing vital assistance and resources for individuals and families facing hardships in Shelby and Jefferson Counties. Our mission is to ensure that everyone has access to essential food assistance, meeting basic nutritional needs, as well as clothing, furniture, and other household necessities. We understand that financial burdens can be overwhelming, which is why we offer limited financial support for utility bills, rent, and medical expenses. Additionally, we may have resources like diapers, wipes, school supplies for Shelby County students, automobiles, appliances, computers, adult pull-ups, and car seats available depending on current supplies. All services are provided free of charge and require a referral from local churches, domestic violence shelters, homeless shelters, or social service agencies. We invite you to reach out to these organizations or check our website for a list of approved referral sites to access our comprehensive support services.
