Ideal Applicant
A Georgia-based nonprofit or program with work in workforce development, education, health, community development or water/environment initiatives; applicants can be small local groups for smaller rolling grants or larger institutions for invited/cycle-based awards.
Good Fit
- • Organization is based in Georgia or serves Georgia communities.
- • Project aligns with Workforce for Georgia, Waters for Georgia, scholarships, youth development, or basic-needs/health access work.
- • Request is for operating or program support, emergency relief, scholarships, or community capital aligned with signature programs.
- • Budget fits typical ranges (many small awards plus occasional large multi-hundred-thousand grants); requests ≤ $25k can use the rolling portal.
- • Can supply a brief letter, 501(c)(3) documentation, and financials as requested in the application requirements.
Geography
Giving is heavily state-focused: roughly 86% of dollars went to Georgia in the latest year, though a small number of out-of-state grants appear across about a dozen states.
Recipient Variety
The latest year funded a very large and diverse set of recipients (443 distinct recipients and 517 grants in 2024), with many program types represented and both small and large awards.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of open access exists: a public application portal and rolling review for requests up to $25,000, plus behavioral evidence of turnover (about 265 new recipients in 2024, roughly 60% of grantees).
