The Community Foundation of Northwest Georgia
The Community Foundation of Northwest Georgia is committed to improving the quality of life for people in Northwest Georgia. The results of its work are both immediate and lasting.

As individuals, as communities, and as a region, the foundation and its partners are sewing the seeds for a brilliant future for the community.
The Community Foundation of Northwest Georgia serves Whitfield, Murray, Gordon, Bartow, Floyd, Dade, Walker, Pickens, Fannin, Gilmer, Chattooga, and Catoosa Counties - bringing people together, strengthening communities, and multiplying resources.
