Connecting People who Care with Causes that Matter
“The Community Foundation is a valuable community partner to Hi-Hope. Earnings from our endowment funds provide vital operating dollars, funding through foundation grants have supported critical capital needs, educational seminars allow us to expand our expertise in fundraising and the mentoring and community connections offered by the foundation’s Executive Director Randy Redner ensure that Hi-Hope is positioned for successfully meeting our community’s overwhelming needs”
—Susan Boland Butts
CEO of Hi-Hope Service Center
We strongly believe in partnering with our nonprofits – because strong, healthy nonprofits equal a strong, healthy community.
From grants to educational programs and more, the Community Foundation for Northeast Georgia strives to provide local nonprofits with the resources they need to thrive.
1. Granting out money to local nonprofits
2. Increasing marketing efforts by sharing their story
3. Providing relevant educational opportunities
4. Connecting nonprofits to people who will help drive their organization’s success (potential board members, volunteers, etc.).
We’re also available to answers questions nonprofits may have, whether fundholders or not.
