An Extra Wish is Back: February 26, 2009

In the past An Extra Wish has generally been attached to our Common Good Funds application and grant cycle. But now An Extra Wish has its own separate grant cycle and application. The first deadline is March 16. Click here to learn more and to download the Guidelines and Application. 
 
An Extra Wish is a program of The Community Foundation that matches the "wishes" of nonprofit organizations with donors interested in making a contribution. It provides monetary and in-kind contributions of tangible goods (a new phone system, copier, gift cards, for example) that contribute in a clear way to the success of organizations.

Highlights

Our Philanthropic Framework

During 2008 The Community Foundation dedicated time to learn new ways we can strengthen the Atlanta region through philanthropy. We studied practices in the field, attended conferences, read research from experts and peers, and listened to our donors, nonprofits and community leaders. From this we have created Our Philanthropic Framework.


This is not a reinvention of The Community Foundation - it is simply our intent to clearly define how we do our work and how we'll know if we're making a difference.
