To work together in the spirit of faith and giving in our community.
OUR IMPACT
Thanks to the generosity of the donors and the efforts of Nick and Terry Saban, the Nick's Kids Foundation has donated nearly $15 million dollars to deserving organizations and causes throughout the state of Alabama and Southeast since the Saban's arrived in Tuscaloosa. To date, we have honored more than 650 teachers with the Nick’s Kids Teacher Excellence Award, and completed projects including career tech classrooms at the Tuscaloosa County Juvenile Detention Center, the Alberta School of Performing Arts playground, and the Tuscaloosa Riverwalk Playground. Additionally, through a longstanding partnership with Habitat for Humanity, they built 21 homes (18 National Championship Homes, 2 SEC Championship Homes and the Sugar House) for deserving local families. Nick’s Kids is also a major donor of the Tuscaloosa All-Inclusive Playground, Boys & Girls Club of West Alabama and Freedom Farm.
The Saban’s legacy project, the Saban Center, a project that will elevate education and combine STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) programs and the arts to provide a unique and interactive learning experience for children in west Alabama. The Saban Center will be home to the state of Alabama STEM Hub, Ignite, and the Tuscaloosa Children’s Theatre.

OUR ACTIVE CAUSES
The Saban Center
The Saban Center is an innovative community partnership that will bring together community, STEM-centered children's organizations including the Tuscaloosa Children's Theatre and Children's Hands-On Museum (CHOM) that will enhance and become IGNITE. This is a unique public-private partnership under the roof of what is currently the Tuscaloosa News Building. Part of the City's Elevate Tuscaloosa Initiative, the Saban Center will bring STEM programs together with theater, literature, outdoor recreation, and interactive learning for children and families in Tuscaloosa.

Building A Future - Habitat for Humanity Home
Following the 2011 tornadoes that
hit Alabama, Coach Saban and Ms.
Terry partnered with Habitat for
Humanity. At the time, the University of
Alabama program had won 13 national
championships, which led to the 13 for
13 project - one home to honor each
championship. As a tribute to the success
of Alabama football, the Foundation
has continued the tradition, building a
Championship House for every additional
title - now totaling 21 homes.
