A commitment to citizenship is the heart of Georgia Power's core values.  The Charitable Giving organization coordinates the company's efforts to give back to the communities we serve.  Strong preference is given to Georgia-based organizations and programs that seek to improve the quality of life for the state's residents.

Guidelines

  • We do not provide grants to individuals, private elementary or secondary schools, and religious organizations, nor do we fund political campaigns or causes.
  • In order to maintain flexibility in giving, the Foundation does not provide multiyear funding commitments.
  • Grant requests up to and including $10,000 are evaluated on an ongoing basis.
  • Grant requests greater than $10,000 must be reviewed and approved by the Foundation board, which meets quarterly in March, June, September and December. All grant applicants are notified by the end of the month for each respective board meeting.
  • Tax-exempt organizations may receive contributions once per 12-month period and reapply on an annual basis.
  • We also work with region and plant leadership teams to evaluate grant proposals within their local areas. Grant applications from region and plant locations should be submitted through the appropriate region management.
