Grants - We Support Our Communities

Graduation Day

Our Foundation's grants come from two distinct sources. First, individuals and organizations award grants from their Donor Advised Funds.

Secondly, each of our three affilates award grants from their affilate funds. These grants are made to local projects and programs that influence the community beyond the time of funding.

We welcome applications from organizations that provide services in Northwest Georgia and have tax exempt status. Our focus areas are Arts and Cultural Enrichment, Civic Activities, Education and Lifelong Learning, Religious Affiliates, Social Services, Historic Preservation, Animal Welfare, and Environmental Preservation.

Please note that:

  • We encourage a paperless grant application process. Please complete the application online. However, if you absolutely can not complete the application online, you may fill-out a hardcopy and send it to our office. CLICK HERE to download a pdf of our application.
