The Grace Klein Community (GKC) is a non-profit organization which distributes food and other necessities to people in need, as well as transitional housing. It also provides affordable housing for Christian missionaries on leave and mission teams working in the area. It is affiliated with the for-profit Grace Klein Construction.
The group was founded in April 2010 by Jason and Jenny Waltman. Its original offices were located at 2652 Old Rocky Ridge Road in Hoover. In 2022 it distributed food to an average of 19,000 people each week across 41 counties.
In 2023 the group relocated to the former Morgan United Methodist Church at 2701 Morgan Road, near I-459 in Bessemer.
