The Black Belt Community Foundation (BBCF) has announced Timika Jackson as the winner of its 2026 Throw & Go Contest.
Throw & Go was created by the BBCF Community Associates and BBCF Community Engagement Team and raises funds for its Community Grants Program supporting community organizations and initiatives in the 12-county service area.
Winners are chosen by completing a 12-yard forward pass to a designated BBCF staff member.
Jackson completed a pass to BBCF’s President & CEO Christopher Spencer with BBCF’s Co-Community Engagement Director Wendell H. Paris, Jr. and other BBCF staff members being present to see it.
The award is two tickets to the 2026 Magic City Classic that features Alabama A&M University and Alabama State University as well as a two-night hotel stay at the Tutwiler Hotel in Birmingham.
“Throw & Go is a wonderful example of how grassroots community participation, generosity and a little friendly competition between our different Community Associates groups across our 12 service counties can make a meaningful difference,” said Spencer. “We congratulate Ms. Jackson and thank everyone who participated in this year’s contest and helped support our work across Alabama’s Black Belt.”
