Community Foundation of Central Georgia



The Community Foundation of Central Georgia was founded in 1993 by a group of citizens interested in encouraging philanthropy and strengthening communities. Since then, the Foundation has awarded over $25 million in grants through its donor advised, unrestricted, designated, field-of-interest, scholarship, and organizational endowment funds.


As a local center for philanthropy, the Community Foundation of Central Georgia works with individuals, families, corporations, private foundations and not-for-profit organizations to carry out their charitable objectives and address emerging community issues.
