The Community Foundation of Central Georgia funds nonprofit projects that improve quality of life for residents of Central Georgia. Priority goes to projects that reach a broad segment of the community, encourage collaboration and attract matching gifts. Operating costs are usually not funded, so a defined project such as a playground improvement fits better.

Could a playground win this?
