About the Georgia Community Foundation

Since its inception, the Georgia Community Foundation has made a special effort to serve donors who, after contributing to GCF, desire to recommend qualified charities or charitable projects to which they would like GCF to contribute. Through these “donor-advised” funds, individuals who contribute to GCF, and their family members, can assist GCF in supporting the charitable activities in which they have an interest.
