Overview

Mission

To serve atlanta, Georgia, by providing quality economic and community development resources to underserved residents in a culturally competent, fiscally responsible, and ethical manner.

What it reported doing in 2025

Serving atlantans in low to moderate income census tracts with innovative programs that create and support affordable housing, small businesses and entrepreneurship, community safety, and access to critical resources.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
