Describe the Organization's Mission:

Part 3 - Line 1

COBB COMMUNITY FOUNDATION IS A PUBLIC CHARITY DRIVEN TO HELP OUR COMMUNITY AND EVERYONE IN AND AROUND IT TO THRIVE, SO WE HELP THOSE WHO GIVE AND SERVE MAKE A GREATER IMPACT. WE ARE A GRANT MAKER. WE ARE A CHARITABLE FUND MANAGER. WE ARE A COMMUNITY CATALYST, FOSTERING COLLABORATION FOR LONG-TERM IMPACT. THESE ROLES ARE EMBODIED IN OUR MISSION STATEMENT: INSPIRING CHARITABLE GIVING, BUILDING RESOURCES FOR THE FUTURE, AND CONNECTING DONORS WHO CARE WITH CAUSES THAT MATTER. IN 2021, COBB COMMUNITY FOUNDATION MADE TOTAL GRANTS AND SCHOLARSHIPS OF OVER $2 MILLION, INCLUDING THE FINAL DISTRIBUTIONS FROM OUR COBB COVID-19 COMMUNITY RESPONSE FUND AND THE FIRST $25,000 IN GRANTS FOR OUR NEW CAPACITY BUILDING PROGRAM.

Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

CONNECTING DONORS AND CAUSES: DONORS CONTRIBUTED NEARLY $3.1 MILLION TO VARIOUS TYPES OF DONOR FUNDS ESTABLISHED AT COBB COMMUNITY FOUNDATION. INCLUDING EARNINGS ON INVESTMENTS, TOTAL ASSETS GREW BY OVER $3.6 MILLION. LIKEWISE, OVER $2 MILLION WAS AWARDED IN GRANTS IN 2021 TO 185 CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS SERVING IN THE AREAS OF HEALTH, HUMAN SERVICES, EDUCATION, COMMUNITY SERVICE AND THE ARTS. THIS YEAR, 45% OF OUR GRANTEES ARE BASED IN COBB COUNTY, AND 60% OF THE TOTAL DOLLARS GRANTED WERE TO COBB NONPROFITS.


COBB COVID-19 COMMUNITY RESPONSE FUND: OUR 2021 COMMUNITY GRANTMAKING CONTINUED TO FOCUS ON COVID RELIEF. BEGINNING IN MARCH OF 2020, WE SHIFTED ALL COMMUNITY GRANTMAKING TO FOCUS ON EXPANDING LOCAL CAPACITY BY SUPPORTING NONPROFITS THAT WERE HELPING INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES EXPERIENCING HARDSHIP BECAUSE OF THE OUTBREAK, RELATED CLOSURES AND DISRUPTIONS. BY THE END OF 2021, 100% OF THE $418,000+ CONTRIBUTED TO OUR COBB COVID-19 COMMUNITY RESPONSE FUND WAS DISTRIBUTED. ALL GRANTMAKING FROM THIS FUND WAS DONE IN COLLABORATION WITH THE UNITED WAY OF GREATER ATLANTA NW REGION AND THE COBB COLLABORATIVE WITH DECISIONS BEING BASED ON LOCAL AND REGIONAL DATA AROUND NEEDS AND RESOURCES AS WELL AS INFORMATION GATHERED DIRECTLY FROM THOSE SERVING THE FRONT LINE.


COBB COMMUNITY FOOD FLEET: COBB COMMUNITY FOUNDATION LEADERSHIP CONTINUED TO HELP FACILITATE DISCUSSIONS AMONG VARIOUS NONPROFITS AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES TO ENSURE THAT COBB'S NEEDS WERE BEING MET, PARTICULARLY WITH RESPECT TO FOOD. THE COBB COMMUNITY FOOD FLEET INITIATIVE THAT BEGAN IN 2020 CONTINUED THROUGH SEPTEMBER OF 2021. THIS COLLABORATIVE EFFORT INVOLVING SEVERAL CORPORATE PARTNERS AND NUMEROUS COBB COUNTY NONPROFITS HELPED TO REMOVE KEY BARRIERS SUCH AS REFRIGERATION, STORAGE SPACE, AND VEHICLES AND EQUIPMENT TO ENSURE THE DISTRIBUTION OF USDA FARMERS TO FAMILIES FOOD BOXES THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE COUNTY. BETWEEN JUNE 1, 2020 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2021, MORE THAN 4.4 MILLION POUNDS OF FOOD, THE EQUIVALENT OF 168,000 MILLION MEALS, WERE DISTRIBUTED BY OVER TEN DIFFERENT NONPROFITS TO MORE THAN FIFTY LOCATIONS ON A WEEKLY BASIS THROUGHOUT THE COBB COUNTY. SIGNIFICANT LONG-TERM BENEFITS HAVE ALREADY BEGUN TO MANIFEST.


CAPACITY BUIDING PROGRAM: CCF'S 2019 NEEDS ASSESSMENT CLARIFIED THE NEED TO HELP SMALLER NONPROFITS PROVIDING SERVICES IN SOUTH COBB TO BUILD THEIR CAPACITY. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH UNITED WAY AND NETWORK FOR GOOD, CCF AWARDED 5 JUMPSTART GRANTS OF $5,000 EACH TO PROVIDE A 12-MONTH TRAINING PROGRAM FOR GRANT RECIPIENTS TO IMMEDIATELY BUILD THEIR FUNDRAISING CAPACITY, DIVERSITY REVENUE AND SUSTAIN AND GROW THEIR PROGRAMS.
