Annual Report Snapshot
You don’t have to be a millionaire to be a philanthropist and we believe that we exist to Encourage Giving, Inspire Action and Improve Lives in South Georgia.
Dear Friends,
It has truly been an amazing year at the Community Foundation of South Georgia. In 2015, we celebrated 19 years of service, surpassed a major grant-making milestone and moved our offices to a new home in downtown Thomasville, Georgia. Amidst some of the changes we underwent, one thing remained constant, the generosity and selflessness of the donors that we work with. Each day we are blessed to connect these caring people with causes that matter in South Georgia and beyond.
As we head into the New Year, we are excited to see what the future holds not only for CFSGA, but for the communities in which we live. We look forward to identifying community needs and developing long-term solutions hand-in-hand with our generous donors. Thank you for your continued partnership in making a difference for generations to come.
Sincerely,
Russ Henry
