Born in the foothills f the Appalachian Mountains into an impoverished family, Ms. Lee learned at a young age what it was like to do without. One of her earliest life lessons was, if you want something, you have to work for it. Her first entrepreneur endeavor began at age 11, selling homemade bread to a local coal mining office. Becoming a mother at the tender age of 15 forced her to join the workforce at 16. She made $1.00 an hour as a waitress, then became a heavy equipment operator at 19 (early 80’s), when few women dared to enter the trucking industry. Seventeen years later, she founded Annette Lee Trucking/South Wind Express. In 2002, a life altering experience caused her to begin tenaciously seeking God and His will for her life. At the age of 43, she took a tremendous leap of faith, closed her company and answered God’s call to Feed My People. Since February 2002, she had dedicated herself to feeding, clothing, counseling and educating the least of these in Clayton and Henry counties (Georgia).

Annette currently resides in Clarksville, Georgia enjoying family life with her husband (William), daughter (Jennifer) and granddaughter (Nicole). She operates a business started by Jennifer and continues to assist families less fortunate than herself.
