Our Mission
“The Georgia Club Foundation is dedicated to serving the unmet educational, spiritual, and basic human needs of persons primarily within the surrounding counties of Barrow, Oconee, and Clarke, and The Georgia Club Community. Through partnerships, volunteer efforts, and fundraising, the Foundation acts as the helping hand that improves and strengthens life in our community.”
About The Georgia Club Foundation
The Georgia Club Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting children, families, and charitable organizations throughout Northeast Georgia. Since our founding in 2006, we have worked to improve lives by providing financial assistance, volunteer support, and resources to organizations serving the communities surrounding The Georgia Club.
Though we are a small foundation, our commitment to giving back is significant. Through community fundraising events, local business sponsorships, individual donations, and dedicated volunteers, The Georgia Club Foundation is able to provide meaningful support to organizations and individuals in need.
Making an Impact in Northeast Georgia
Our mission comes to life through the organizations, programs, and families we are privileged to support.
Through our donations and volunteer efforts, we help provide weekend meals to approximately 110 children and support summer programming through Oconee Food for Kids. We also help approximately 185 children and young adults with disabilities experience fuller, more connected lives through Extra Special People, expanding opportunities for friendship, independence, and new experiences.
In 2025 alone, The Georgia Club Foundation made a meaningful impact throughout the local community by awarding more than $158,000 in grants to 31 organizations and over $60,000 in scholarships to 28 students. The Foundation also contributed more than $7,000 and 500 toys through its Toy Drive, welcomed 350 participants to the Charity Golf Classic and Casino Night, and helped collect 56 pints of blood through its community Blood Drive.
Our giving extends to many other local needs as well, including organizations such as St. Mary’s Hospice, where support can help bring care and comfort to patients and their families.
These are only a few examples of how The Georgia Club Foundation and its supporters are making a difference throughout Northeast Georgia.
The Power of Community Giving
The true impact of kindness cannot always be measured.
We may never know which child succeeded because they had enough to eat, which family found hope during the holidays, or which patient and family experienced greater comfort during a difficult time. What we do know is that every act of generosity has the potential to create an impact far beyond the original gift.
That impact is possible because of the residents of The Georgia Club community, club members, local businesses, volunteers, donors, and other supporters who believe in our mission and continue to give their time and resources.
Making Every Donation Count
The Georgia Club Foundation is committed to operating efficiently and thoughtfully evaluating charitable requests so that donations can directly support individuals and organizations with meaningful needs.
Our goal remains the same today as it was when we began: to help meet the educational, spiritual, and basic human needs of individuals and families throughout the Northeast Georgia communities surrounding The Georgia Club.
Together, we can continue building a stronger, more compassionate community—one act of generosity at a time.
