The Southeastern Council of Foundations is a membership association of grantmaking foundations and programs that promotes excellence throughout the field of philanthropy and the creation of new philanthropic resources to benefit the region.

The Council on Foundations works to support foundations by promoting knowledge, growth and action in philanthropy. See what role foundations play in your community, how to start your own foundation and what the Council does to support foundations.

The Foundation Center's mission is to foster public understanding of the foundation field by collecting, organizing, analyzing, and disseminating information on foundations, corporate giving, and related subjects.

The Robert W. Woodruff Foundation is a private foundation with a broad charter to support charitable, scientific and educational activities. Grants generally are limited to tax-exempt public charities located and operating in Georgia.

The grant program of the Joseph B. Whitehead Foundation reflects a strong emphasis on basic human services, particularly organizations and programs that benefit children and youth in metropolitan Atlanta.

The Foundation devotes most of its resources to the Lettie Pate Whitehead scholarship program. Annual grants are made to accredited educational institutions in nine specified southeastern states to fund scholarships for the education of women. Support is also provided to a few selected residential care homes for the aging.
