NGCF NEWS RELEASE:
“The North Georgia Community Foundation (NGCF) is now accepting
applications for its 2025 Community Grant Cycle, open July 15 through August 17, 2025, at 5:00 PM.
This annual cycle provides strategic funding to nonprofit organizations serving communities throughout
North Georgia.
In 2024, NGCF achieved a record-breaking year, awarding a total of $1,434,913 through all
grant and scholarship programs. The Community Grant Cycle alone distributed over half a million

this momentum, NGCF looks forward to another impactful year with excitement and determination to
deepen its community impact.
As NGCF celebrates its 40th anniversary—a milestone reflecting four decades of philanthropy,
partnership, and community support—this year’s grant programs carry even greater meaning. “The heart
of our work has always been the community—and now, more than ever, we are committed to continuing
to invest in the nonprofit organizations that are changing lives every day,” said Michelle Prater, NGCF
President & CEO.
