Mission & Focus Areas

The organization’s stated mission is to engage and bring together people and resources to drive sustainable and equitable improvements in the well-being of children, families, and individuals in the community.

Its four investment priorities are Strong Learners, College and Career Ready, Economic Stability, and Brighter Future. The funder says it supports data-informed, community-driven solutions, including evidence-based direct services, systems-level initiatives, capacity building, and place-based work. Its stated funding exclusions include work outside its 13-county service area, capital campaigns, politically motivated efforts or lobbying, and initiatives not grounded in data and evidence-based practices.

Its 2025 grantees illustrate the range of organizations supported. Frontline Housing says its mission is to provide low-barrier permanent housing for people experiencing homelessness and financial well-being services. Atlanta Speech School says its mission is to bring deep reading to every child. Quality Care for Children describes its mission as equipping families and childcare providers with tools and resources to nurture and educate young children. Housing Plus says it provides equitable housing solutions, economic wellness programs, and financial assistance to low- and moderate-income households. Partners for Home says it coordinates a comprehensive response to ending homelessness in Atlanta. Early Learning Property Management says it builds and maintains facilities to support early childhood development in underserved communities.
