Hall Powell’s Journey into Faith and Fundraising

Little did Hall Powell know that when he declared Business Administration as his major track at the University of Alabama in the Fall of 1956, that his “business” career would evolve into 38 years in the nonprofit sector, both as a development officer and consultant. Hall’s “business” ultimately became a ministry of philanthropy. The 21 years in the private business sector, prior to entering into the wonderful world of philanthropy, definitely helped to prepare him for an impactful and successful career.
