Ideal Applicant
A small to mid-sized local nonprofit—often faith-based, community-service, youth, education, or health-focused—requesting operating support and registered as a 501(c)(3), especially organizations based in Georgia.
Good Fit
- • Based in Georgia or serving a Georgia community
- • Requests for operating/general support rather than large program expansions
- • Faith-based churches, local community centers, youth programs, or health clinics
- • Project or annual budgets that align with grants in the $1K–$50K range
- • Can supply the simple written application elements and a contact phone/address
Geography
Giving is concentrated in the foundation's home state, with roughly 83% of dollars staying in-state and only limited out-of-state grants to a few other states.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 28 distinct recipients and similar counts in prior years, covering churches, community organizations, youth groups and clinics; despite dollar concentration among the top five, the number of independent grantees is large.
New Applicants
The foundation funded 11 new recipients in the latest year (about 39% new in 2024), maintains a published set of application requirements, and accepts mailed submissions, which together suggest unfamiliar applicants can plausibly enter the portfolio.
